Dinucleotide is obtained by joining two nucleotides together by phosphodiester linkage. Between which carbon atoms of pentose sugars of nucleotides are these linkages present?

(a) 5’and 3′

(b) Y and 5′

(c) 5′ and 5′

(d) 3’and 3′

This is a Multiple Answer Type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

(a) 5′ and 3′ linkages are present between pentose sugars of nucleotides.

Phosphodiester links the two nucleotides together to form a dinucleotide.

Between the pentose sugars of nucleotides, there are 5′ and 3′ connections. In the process of adding phosphate to a dinucleotide, a significant quantity of energy is consumed.
