Sort the parts of a nucleic acid according to whether each occurs exclusively in dna, exclusively in rna, or in both types of nucleic acid. : thymine, deoxyribose, adenine, guanine, cytosine, phosphate, uracil, ribose

Thymine: Exclusively in DNA

Deoxyribose: Exclusively in DNA

Adenine: Present in Both DNA and RNA

Guanine: Present in Both DNA and RNA

Cytosine: Both

Uracil : Exclusively in RNA

Ribose: Exclusively in RNA

Explanation:

THYMINE: Thymine is exclusively found in the DNA. It is a pyramodine nucleobase.

DEOXYRIBOSE: Deoxyribose is exclusively found in the DNA. Deoxyribose are derived from the sugar ribose by replacing hydrogen in the place of hydroxyl group.

ADENINE: Adenine can be found in both the DNA and RNA. Adenine is a purine nucleobase.

GUANINE: Guanine is present in both DNA and RNA. It is the nucleobase that pairs with cytosine.

CYTOSINE: Cytosine is present both in the DNA as well as the RNA.

URACIL: Uracil is found only in the RNA. Uracil binds with Adenine in RNA.

RIBOSE: Ribose occurs exclusively in the RNA.

a "theory" a suggestion that is not 100 % accurate, or a figure. some people say its a theory because they of all the passed theory's about one subject. it depends sometimes theory might be accurate and sometimes they are.
