You are analyzing an unknown substance. You determine that it is made up of sugars, phosphates, and nitrogenous bases. What type of molecule is this substance most likely to be

a nucleic acid

Explanation:

A nucleic acid is a biomolecule composed of subunits called nucleotides. Nucleotides are made of three types of molecules: a 5-carbon sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. There are two types of nucleic acids: ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and they are involved in the genetic information transfer in living organisms.

surface mining destroys mountain tops, landscapes, forests and wildlife habitats. on top of that, it leads to soil erosion and destruction of agricultural land. the landscape changes can also disrupt river channels and streams, which leads to flooding. which, can destroy plant life and other animals as well.

explanation:

some fungi obtain their nutrients from a living host (plant or animal) and are called most biotrophic fungi have fairly narrow host ranges—they are specialized on a limited called rhizomorphs that allow the fungus to grow from one tree to another. ascospores are formed inside a sac-like structure called an ascus. so your answer is a
