Answer:
A. 1' ... 5'
Explanation:
The pentose sugars present in nucleotides have five-carbon structures. Other components of a nucleotide are a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous base in a nucleotide can be a purine or pyrimidine. The purine bases are covalently joined to the 1' carbon atom of the pentose sugar at their N-9. The bond between the nitrogenous base and a pentose sugar is called the N-beta glycosyl bond.
Similarly, N-1 of a pyrimidine base is covalently linked to the 1' carbon of the pentose sugar. The phosphate group of a nucleotide is bonded to the 5' carbon of the pentose sugar.
