Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following contains the genetic code for protein synthesis?
A
carbohydrate
B
lipid
C
protein
D
nucleic acid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Proteins are encoded by genetic codes stored in DNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -Deoxyribonucleic acid (abbreviated DNA) is the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism. DNA is made of two linked strands that wind around each other to resemble a twisted ladder-a shape known as a double helix.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nucleic Acids Deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, encodes the information cells need to make proteins. A related type of nucleic acid, called ribonucleic acid (RNA), comes in different molecular forms that play multiple cellular roles, including protein synthesis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleic acids are the main information-carrying molecules of the cell, and, by directing the process of protein synthesis, they determine the inherited characteristics of every living thing. The two main classes of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
