5 0

DNA is made up of six smaller molecules -- a five carbon sugar called deoxyribose, a phosphate molecule and four different nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine).

Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids; they are composed of three subunit molecules: a nitrogenous base, a five-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), and at least one phosphate group.

You observed light passing through lenses and through a set of prisms. Why does refraction occur? Include your lab observations

lara31 [8.8K]

I don't have your lab observations, but I can give you the reason why refraction occurs.

Refraction refers to the bending of light at the interface as it passes through mediums of different densities.

Refraction occurs because light travels at different speeds in mediums with different densities.

Hope this helps!
