All of the following tend to favor a helical conformation of a
single polynucleotide chain EXCEPT:
A) charge–charge repulsion of phosphate residues of the
polynucleotide backbone.
B) interchange of electrons in the p orbitals of the purine
and pyrimidine bases.
C) hydrophobic interactions of the rings of the purine and
pyrimidine bases that exclude water.
D) hydrogen bonding between appropriate purine–pyrimidine
pairs.
Which of the following characteristics distinguishes most RNA
molecules from DNA?
A terminal triphosphate on newly synthesized strands
A 5′-phosphate group linked to a pentose sugar
A purine or pyrimidine base linked to a pentose sugar .
A 3’-phosphate group linked to a pentose sugar
Susceptibility to alkaline hydrolysis because of neighboring
pentose hydroxyl groups

and Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate happens at what stage?
Non-oxidative stage
Reductive stage
