Cyclohexane is oxidized by HNO_(3) to produce

Assertion : The heterocyclic compounds in nucleic acid are the nitrogenous bases. Reason : Adenine and guanine are substituted pyrimidines while uracil, cytosine and thymine are substituted purines.

Assertion :- Adenine and Guanine are substituated purines. Reason : In Adenine and Guanine purine hetercylic ring has either amino or amino and oxy groups.
