What bond is formed between two mononucleotides when they are joined together? Phosphodiester bond
Where on the two mononucleotides does the phosphodiester bond form? Between the sugar of one mononucleotide and the phosphate group of another
When lots of mononucleotides join together they form what? A polynucleotide
What does DNA stand for? And what is its function? DNA = Deoxyribonucleic Acid DNA stores genetic information.
What does RNA stand for? And what is its function? RNA = Ribonucleic Acid RNA transfers genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes
