Detailed explanation-1: -Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a molecule that encodes an organism’s genetic blueprint.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms.
Detailed explanation-3: -Nucleic acids are made of nitrogen-containing bases, phosphate groups, and sugar molecules. Each type of nucleic acid has a distinctive structure and plays a different role in our cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -RNA has great capability as a genetic molecule; it once had to carry on hereditary processes on its own. It now seems certain that RNA was the first molecule of heredity, so it evolved all the essential methods for storing and expressing genetic information before DNA came onto the scene.
Detailed explanation-5: -In nature, just two closely related nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, function as repositories and carriers of genetic information.
