Coding Strand of DNA
When pointing to DNA transcription, the coding strand is found to be the DNA strand whose base sequence is indistinguishable from the base sequence of the RNA transcript developed. It is this strand that comprises the codons, while the non-coding strand …
Nucleotide
Both DNA and RNA are composed of organic molecules known as nucleotides. Hence, nucleotides are known as the basic building blocks of nucleic acids. These substances play a role in various processes such as cell signalling, enzyme reactions, metabolism, …
Structure of Cytosine
Cytosine is among the five primary nitrogenous bases of which DNA and RNA and are being used in storage and transportation of genetic makeup within a cell. Adenine, guanine, thymine as well as uracil are the remaining four nucleobases.

Chapter 11, Problem 11.22EP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason as to why the nucleotides containing deoxyribose, uracil and phosphate are not found in deoxyribonucleic acids has to be explained.

Concept introduction: DNA is a nucleotide polymer.  Each of its monomer contains deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of the heterocyclic bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or thymine.
