Front (Question)

Nucleic Acid Process

Back (Answer)

Nucleic acids are essential to all known forms of life. They are known as “information molecules” as they contain the inherited code for making proteins and controlling cellular activites. The primary nucleic acid is DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The other important form of nucleic acid is ribonucleic acid (RNA).
