To determine:
The sugar and base present in AMP.
Introduction:
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a genetic material which is responsible for passing information from one generation to another. Ribonucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides. It is a single stranded structure that made up of ribose sugar and nucleotide bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.
