What sugar is found in DNA?

  • A.Ribose
  • B.Deoxyribose
  • C.Pentose
  • D.Sucrose

Answer: B

DNA contains deoxyribose.

It differs from the ribose of RNA in lacking an oxygen at the 2′ position, which makes the molecule chemically more stable and better suited to storing information over a lifetime.
