Answer: Purines and pyrimidines are nitrogenous bases, a component of Nucleotide
Step-by-step explanation:
The purines in DNA are adenine and guanine, the same as in RNA. The pyrimidines in DNA are cytosine and thymine; in RNA, they are cytosine and uracil. Purines are larger than pyrimidines because they have a two-ring structure while pyrimidines only have a single ring.
