Answer:

The correct answer is Ribose sugar.

Explanation:

The five-carbon sugars deoxyribose and ribose are essential components found in nucleic acids. The sugar found in nucleic acids is pentose sugars that mean a pentose sugar has five carbon atoms. Nucleic acids are DNA and RNA.

RNA OR ribose nucleic acid is a nucleic acid with a 5 carbon sugar called Ribose. It is present in all living beings. It plays an important role as a messenger that helps to collect information from the DNA and translate it to protein with the help of ribosomes.

Thus, the correct answer is Ribose.
