Cytosine, thymine (dna only), uracil (rna only) Dna nucleotides are missing an o at the 2" c (fig 4. 1b) Dna, d stands for deoxyribose; deoxy means less oxygen. Covalently bond 2 nucleotides together w a dehydration reaction (remove a water) All sugars in a strand have same orientation. Dna: the bases of 2 antiparallel (opposite direction) strands h bond to form double helix. Dna: information storage w access for product generation. Rna: the bases of a single strand h bond with each other to form a hairpin structure. Rna: many types w different functions, including structural , information, and enzymatic.
