Absolute location describes the position of a place in a way that never changes, no matter your location. The location is identified by specific coordinates. The most common coordinate system is longitude and latitude, which describes a specific place on the earth's surface.
Nucleic Acids. Nucleotides join together through phosphodiester linkages between the 5' and 3' carbon atoms to form nucleic acids. The 3' -OH of the sugar group forms a bond with one of the negatively charged oxygens of the phosphate group attached to the 5' carbon of another sugar.
Without the phosphate group, the nucleobase and sugar compose a nucleoside. The phosphate groups form bonds with either the 2, 3, or 5-carbon of the sugar, with the 5-carbon site most common. Cyclic nucleotides form when the phosphate group is bound to two of the sugar's hydroxyl groups.Nucleotides contain either a purine or a pyrimidine base. Ribonucleotides are nucleotides in which the sugar is ribose. Deoxyribonucleotides are nucleotides in which the sugar is deoxyribose.Nucleic acids are polymeric macromolecules made from nucleotide monomers.he phosphate groups form bonds with either the 2, 3, or 5-carbon of the sugar, with the 5-carbon site most common.
