  3. They can have any of three purines or two pyrimidines.
  4. Structurally, pyrimidines have two rings, and purines have one.
  5. They are the building blocks of DNA and RNA.
  1. All of the answers are true.
  2. PRPP synthetase catalyzes the process that converts ATP to AMP.
  3. It begins with ribose-5-phosphate.
  4. It includes the intermediate known as IMP.
  5. It consumes ATP.
