BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleic acids, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), carry genetic information which is read in cells to make the RNA and proteins by which living things function. The well-known structure of the DNA double helix allows this information to be copied and passed on to the next generation.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of nucleic acids: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). DNA stores and transmits genetic information. Through RNA intermediates, the information encoded in DNA is used to specify the amino acid sequences of proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nucleic acids are naturally occurring chemical compounds that serve as the primary information-carrying molecules in cells and make up the genetic material. Nucleic acids are found in abundance in all living things, where they create, encode, and then store information of every living cell of every life-form on Earth.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleotides are the constituents of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA), which store and transmit genetic information. They also act as carriers of chemical energy in cells, as enzyme cofactors, and as secondary messengers.
