Detailed explanation-1: -The natural nucleic acids DNA and RNA serve as the repositories and carriers of genetic information for all life on earth.
Detailed explanation-2: -Nucleic acids DNA is a double-stranded nucleic acid. DNA is the molecule that stores our genetic information (Figure below).
Detailed explanation-3: -Nucleic acids are polymers that store, transmit, and express hereditary (genetic) information. This information is encoded in the sequences of monomers that make up nucleic acids. There are two types of nucleic acids: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). DNA stores and transmits genetic information.
Detailed explanation-4: -A nucleic acid is an organic compound, such as DNA or RNA, that is built of small units called nucleotides. Many nucleotides bind together to form a chain called a polynucleotide. The nucleic acid DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) consists of two polynucleotide chains.
