### Step-by-Step Text Solution for Illustrating the Phosphodiester Bond 1. **Understanding the Components**: - The phosphodiester bond is a crucial connection in nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). It forms the backbone of these molecules. - It involves a sugar molecule (deoxyribose in DNA and ribose in RNA) and a phosphate group. 2. **Identifying the Sugars**: - Each sugar molecule has carbon atoms numbered from 1 to 5. ...
