Question
The 3' 5' phosphodiester linkages inside a polynucleotide chain serve to join
-
one DNA strand with the other DNA strand
-
one nucleoside with another nucleoside
-
one nucleotide with another nucleotide
-
one nitrogenous base with pentose sugar
Solution
C.
one nucleotide with another nucleotide
