Nucleotides portions used in making of nucleic acids

Name the nucleotides “portions” which bind in the making of nucleic acids? What do you mean by the 5 and 3 extremities of the nucleic acids?

The phosphate class of one nucleotide joins to the pentose of other nucleotide and so forth to build the polynucleotide chain. Each and every extremity of a RNA or DNA chain can be differentiated from the other extremity in order to their terminal chemical entity. The phosphate-ended extremity is termed as 5-extremity and the pentose-ended extremity is termed as 3-extremity. Therefore RNA or DNA chains can be run all along the 5-3 way or all along the 3-5 way. Such ways are significant in various biological functions of RNA and DNA as some reactions particularly take place following one way or other way.
