Difference between DNA and Pentose

DNA vs. Pentose

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses. A pentose is a monosaccharide with five carbon atoms.

Similarities between DNA and Pentose

DNA and Pentose have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atom, Carbon, Deoxyribose, Hydroxy group, Metabolism, Monosaccharide, Nucleotide, Polymer, Ribose, RNA.

Atom

An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of a chemical element.

Nucleotide

Nucleotides are organic molecules that serve as the monomer units for forming the nucleic acid polymers deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), both of which are essential biomolecules within all life-forms on Earth.

Polymer

A polymer (Greek poly-, "many" + -mer, "part") is a large molecule, or macromolecule, composed of many repeated subunits.

Ribose

Ribose is a carbohydrate with the formula C5H10O5; specifically, it is a pentose monosaccharide (simple sugar) with linear form H−(C.
