Nitrogen bases (adenine, cytosine, thymine, guanine) are synthesized according to a template found in?

a. DNA


b. RNA


c. dipeptides


d. amino acids





i dont think its DNA because the nitrogen bases are in the DNA





i dont think its RNA either because that gets information off the DNA





i think its amino acids, but not sure what dipeptides are..





thanks in advance

Nitrogen bases (adenine, cytosine, thymine, guanine) are synthesized according to a template found in?
It depends. If it is synthesized as:


a to t


t to a


g to c


c to g


it's DNA.





But if it's


a to u


t to a


g to c


c to g


it's RNA.
Reply:bases are copied from their mirror bases -- a from t or u, c from g, g from c, and t or u from a. in dna replication, a, c, g, and t are copied from t, g, c, and a of dna. in transcription, a, c, g, and u are copied from t, g, c, and a of dna. in reverse transcription, a, c, g, and t are copied from u, g, c, and a of rna.
Reply:a. DNA
Reply:The answer is RNA, because an RNA template is required for DNA polymerase to function. DNA polymerase is involved in nucleotide synthesis.
