If I cant get to them in class, I will go back and answer them by 4 pm each day. colburnm https://padlet.com/colburnm/STAAR/wish/2146930363 2022-04-18 12:52:09 UTC https://padlet.com/colburnm/STAAR/wish/2146930363 https://padlet.com/colburnm/STAAR/wish/2147493114 Dna = Nucleus
Prokaryote has Dna but Prokaryote doesn't have nucleus . How does that make sense.

That is very true!  Prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, their DNA floats freely in the cell itself.  
However-this is for a eukaryotic cell because it is looking at a mitochondria, which is eukaryotic only. So in this case, the DNA and RNA of a eukaryote are made in the nucleus. ]]> 2022-04-18 20:08:11 UTC https://padlet.com/colburnm/STAAR/wish/2147493114 adarshharis199 https://padlet.com/colburnm/STAAR/wish/2152993740
Nucleic acids are biological polymers that are comprised of nucleotide monomers bonded together.  The picture above shows two monomer units of a nucleic acid chain. What are the components that make up each nucleotide monomer?  

Your mistake here was the sugar's identity. Glucose is a sugar yes. However in DNA the sugar is not glucose, instead it is deoxyribose (this is what the 'd' in DNA stands for). In RNA the sugar is ribose (this is what the 'r' in RNA stands for). Because they do not tell you if this is DNA or RNA the generic answer of a sugar would be better than glucose in the answer, so the correct answer choice is the last one shown in the screenshot.
