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: -Answer and Explanation: The nucleic acid is one of the basic molecules of life, which functions as the carrier and storage of the genetic information of an organism.
Detailed explanation-3: -Among other important roles, nucleotides can serve as sources of energy in the form of ATP, physiological signaling mediators, secondary messengers, and allosteric enzyme effectors.
Detailed explanation-4: -DNA stores biological information in sequences of four bases of nucleic acid-adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G)-which are strung along ribbons of sugar-phosphate molecules in the shape of a double helix.
