Sucrose is composed of $$\alpha {\text{ - }}D{\text{ - }}$$ glucopyranose and a $$\beta {\text{ - }}D{\text{ - }}$$ fructofuranose units which are joined by $$\alpha ,\beta {\text{ - }}$$ glycosidic linkage between $$C{\text{ - }}1$$ of the glucose unit and $$C{\text{ - }}2$$ of the fructose unit.

$$RNA$$ is different from $$DNA$$ because $$RNA$$ contains
In $$RNA$$ the sugar is $$D - $$ ribose and base is uracil where as in $$DNA,$$ the sugar is $$D - $$ 2 de oxyribose and the nitrogenous base is thymine.

Nucleotides in $$DNA$$ are linked by –
A
hydrogen bond
B
$$3',5'{\text{ - }}$$ phosphodiester bond
C
glycosidic bond
D
peptide bond
Answer :
$$3',5'{\text{ - }}$$ phosphodiester bond

Match List $$I$$ ( name of vitamin ) with List $$II$$ ( deficiency result/disease ) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists :
The two isomeric forms $$\left( {a - \,{\text{and}}\,b - } \right)$$ of
$$D - $$ glucopyronose differ in configuration only at $$C - 1;$$ hence these are called anomers.
189.
If one strand of $$DNA$$ has the sequence $$ATGCTTGA,$$ the sequence in the complimentary strand would be
On the basis of structure of guanine and complementary bases present in them, we
can say that if the sequence of bases in one strand of $$DNA$$ is $$I,$$ then the sequence in the second strand should be $$II$$
$$\eqalign{
& A:T:G:C:T:T:G:A{\text{ }}I \cr
& T:A:C:G:A:A:C:T{\text{ }}II \cr} $$
