Respuesta :

a five-carbon sugar is deoxyribose
 a giant molecule consisting of the sugar deoxyribose, phosphates, and nitrogen bases is DNA
  a change in the genetic information code is mutation
one of the three major types of chemicals making up a nucleotide in DNA
is nitrogen base
5. the combination of phosphate, sugar, and nitrogen bases in DNA or RNA is nucleotide

6. a nucleic acid similar to DNA that uses ribose for the sugar is RNA
hope it helps

Answer:

1. Deoxyribose

2. DNA

3. Mutation

4. Nitrogen base

5. Nucleotide

6. RNA

Explanation:

There are two types of nucleic acids: RNA and DNA. They are polymers of nucleotides. Deoxyribose and ribose are the pentose sugars present in DNA and RNA respectively. DNA is the large molecule made of deoxyribonucleotides. Each deoxyribonucleotide is made of one deoxyribose sugar, one nitrogen base and one phosphate molecule. Mutations are any changes in the DNA of individuals.
