Identify the components of DNA. Move the correct answer to each box. Not all answers will be used.

Base pair

Select all correct options
Ribose sugar
Nitrogenous base
Deoxyribose sugar

1 answer

The components of DNA include:

  • Phosphate
  • Deoxyribose sugar
  • Nitrogenous base

The correct answers for the components of DNA are therefore:

  • Phosphate
  • Deoxyribose sugar
  • Nitrogenous base

(Note that "Base pair" refers to pairs of nitrogenous bases, and "Ribose sugar" is found in RNA, not DNA, so they are not included in the DNA components.)
