In nucleoside, a base is attached at 1C position of the sugar moiety. A nucleotide is formed by linking the phosphoric acid unit to the sugar unit of a nucleoside. At which position of sugar unit is the phosphoric acid linked in a nucleoside to give a nucleotide?

When a nitrogenous base is connected to the 1′ position of a five-carbon sugar, a nucleoside is produced. The 5′ carbon of the sugar in a nucleoside molecule is bonded to the 5′ carbon of the sugar in a nucleotide molecule to form a nucleotide molecule.
