| 2. | Together with polysaccharides and polypeptides, these comprise the true macromolecular fraction of any living tissue or cell. |
| 3. | A nucleotide has three chemically distinct components: a heterocyclic compound, a monosaccharide, and a phosphoric acid or a phosphate. |
| 4. | The hexose sugar found in polynucleotides is either ribose or 2’deoxyribose. |
