Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Living cells need organic molecules, known as nucleic acids . Nucleic acids are molecules that store genetic information. They pass that genetic information to the next generation. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the nucleic acid that carries information for nearly all living cells today. DNA has done this for most of Earth's history. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) delivers genetic instructions to the location in a cell where protein is synthesized. RNA regulates protein synthesis. Some scientists think that RNA was the first replicating molecule. Q: Name the two types of nucleic acids. Choices: - isoleucin and leucine - dna ( trigraph acid ) and rna ( ribonucleic acid ) - lysine and methionine - dna (deoxyribonucleic acid) and rna (ribonucleic acid) A:
Answer:
dna (deoxyribonucleic acid) and rna (ribonucleic acid)
