    What is the difference between a nucleoside and a nucleotide ?

    In nucleoside , a base is attached at 1' position of sugar moiety. Nucleotide is formed by linking of phosphoric acid unit of the sugar unit of nucleoside. At which position of sugar unit is the phosphoric acid linked in a nucleoside to give a nucleotide ?

    Assertion : The bonds attaching second and third phosphated in higher nucleotide are high energy bonds Reason : The bonds are attached against force of repulsion.

    Assertion : Nucleotides are phosphate esters of nucleosides. Reason : The various nucleotides in nucleic acids are linked either through purine or pyrimidine bases.
