Which of the following set of molecule show presence of heterocyclic ring?
1. Glucose, Trypsin
2. Glycogen, Lysine
3. Adenine, Guanine
4. Lecithin, Ribose
| 1. | Nitrogen bases such as adenine, guanine, cytosine, uracil, and thymine contain heterocyclic rings. |
| 2. | When a nitrogen base is attached to a sugar molecule, the compound formed is called a nucleoside. |
| 3. | Nucleotides are formed when a nitrogen base is directly esterified to a phosphate group without sugar involvement. |
| 4. | DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, composed exclusively of nucleotides, and can function as genetic material. |
