Question 7 • Anatomy & Physiology A

What are nucleobases?

Answer
A
harmful substances found in the environment
B
nitrogen molecules that create the DNA sequence
C
special and unique enzymes used in DNA replication
D
genetic information that is passed down to offspring

Explanation

Nucleobases are nitrogen-containing components of DNA, including adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. Their order along a DNA strand forms the DNA sequence, so choice B is correct. They are not enzymes or the genetic information itself; rather, they are the building blocks whose sequence carries that information.
