Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleic acids, macromolecules made out of units called nucleotides, come in two naturally occurring varieties: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). DNA is the genetic material found in living organisms, all the way from single-celled bacteria to multicellular mammals like you and me.
Detailed explanation-2: -Ribonucleic acid (abbreviated RNA) is a nucleic acid present in all living cells that has structural similarities to DNA. Unlike DNA, however, RNA is most often single-stranded.
Detailed explanation-3: -Examples of long RNAs are ‘’long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA is an example of RNA that codes for a protein. It is translated into a protein based on the genetic information it copied from the DNA.
