Answer: Purine

Explanation:

A purine is a nitrogenous base found in nucleic acids, and contains a 6-membered pyrimidine ring fused to the 5-membered imidazole ring. The most common examples of purine bases are adenine and guanine.

Thus, the nitrogen base pictured is adenine, and the nucleotide considered is a purine
