Question
Define the following terms:
  1. Nucleotide.
  2. Anomers.
  3. Essential amino acids.

Answer

  1. A unit formed by the combination of a nitrogen containing heterocyclic base,5-carbon atom sugar and phosphoric acid.
  2. Anomers are the isomers formed due to the change in configuration of –OH group at C-1 of glucose/ ∝ and $\beta$ forms of glucose are known as anomers.
  3. Essential amino acids are the amino acids required in our diet for the growth of the body/which are not synthesized by our body and obtained through diet.
