Understandings:

The nucleic acids DNA and RNA are polymers of nucleotides.

• Nucleotides are the monomers of the polymer DNA.

• The phosphate, sugar, and base are linked by covalent bonds.
• In DNA and RNA, each nucleotide is linked to the next nucleotide between the phosphate of one and the pentose sugar of the other nucleotide.
