Understand the Problem
The question is asking to analyze visual representations of two nucleic acids and draw a logical conclusion based on the differences in their components and structures.
Answer
B. Nucleic acid #1 contains the sugar ribose, whereas nucleic acid #2 contains the sugar deoxyribose.
The final answer is B. Nucleic acid #1 contains the sugar ribose, whereas nucleic acid #2 contains the sugar deoxyribose.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is B. Nucleic acid #1 contains the sugar ribose, whereas nucleic acid #2 contains the sugar deoxyribose.
More Information
Different sugars are indicative of RNA (ribose) and DNA (deoxyribose) structures.
