Detailed explanation-1: -RNA carries genetic information in some viruses. A few functions of RNA are the creation of new cells in the body, playing as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes, translation of DNA into proteins, and choosing appropriate amino acids to form new proteins in the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Nucleic acids are key macromolecules in the continuity of life. They carry the genetic blueprint of a cell and carry instructions for the functioning of the cell. The two main types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).
Detailed explanation-4: -Proteins-Molecular Machines. Nucleic Acids-Information Repositories. Lipids-Waterproof Membranes. Carbohydrates-Stored Energy.
