Detailed explanation-1: -Your cells contain two types of nucleic acids, ribonucleic acid and deoxyribonucleic acid. They differ from other nutrients in that they are not a source of energy in your diet.
Detailed explanation-2: -The energy released during a catabolic reaction is conserved in the form of a high-energy molecule (ATP). The biomolecules which are undergoing catabolic reactions are carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.
Detailed explanation-3: -Among biomolecules, nucleic acids, namely DNA and RNA, have the unique function of storing an organism’s genetic code-the sequence of nucleotides that determines the amino acid sequence of proteins, which are of critical importance to life on Earth.
Detailed explanation-4: -Nucleic acids are large biomolecules that play essential roles in all cells and viruses. A major function of nucleic acids involves the storage and expression of genomic information. Deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, encodes the information cells need to make proteins.
