Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which biomolecule provides all living organisms with genetic information?
A
Nucleic Acid
B
Protein
C
Carbohydrates
D
Lipids
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -DNA is the genetic material found in all living organisms, ranging from single-celled bacteria to multicellular mammals. The other type of nucleic acid, RNA, is mostly involved in protein synthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Four main categories of biomolecules are proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates, which are important for providing energy and structural stability. Proteins carry out a variety of cellular functions, while nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are the genetic building blocks made of nucleotides.
