Answer:
C. Nucleotides
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are macromolecules which are polymers of nucleotides. There are two types of nucleic acids namely: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids.
A nucleotide is made up of three components:
- A phosphate group
- A five carbon sugar called pentose sugar. In RNA the sugar is ribose sugar and in DNA the sugar is deoxyribose sugar.
- Nitrogenous bases: There are four different types of bases in DNA: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. In RNA thymine is replaced by uracil. Adenine and guanine are purines whereas cytosine, thymine and uracil are pyrimidines.
Nitrogenous base and sugar together are called nucleoside and when phosphate is also attached then it is called nucleotide.
Answer:
Diploid cells abbreviated 2n and haploid cells abbreviated 1n because 'n' represents number of chromosome present in the cell. In haploid cells the number of chromosome is half in number while in diploid cells the number of chromosome is double so that's why haploid is abbreviated as 1n and diploid is abbreviated as 2n.
Diploid cells are present in body cells while haploid cells are found in sex cells.
