On complete hydrolysis of DNA we will get all the following except______________?
Correct answer: B. Adenosine
- A. Deoxy pentose sugar
- B. Adenosine
- C. Phosphoric acid
- D. Purine bases
Explanation
Complete DNA hydrolysis yields deoxyribose, phosphoric acid and nitrogenous bases such as adenine and guanine. Adenosine is a nucleoside containing adenine plus ribose, so it is not a direct product of DNA hydrolysis.
