When heated too much, enzymes (since they are proteins dependent on their shape) become denatured. When the temperature drops, the enzyme regains its shape. ... Changes in pH will also denature the enzyme by changing the shape of the enzyme. Enzymes are also adapted to operate at a specific pH or pH range.

A - DNA as the inheritance materials B - RNA as the inheritance materials C - The formation of organic molecules, e.g. nucleic a

Stels [109]

EXPLANATION:

There are 2 types of nucleic acids: DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA(ribonucleic acid).

Living organisms have their genetic material in their DNA. Viruses use RNA as their genetic material but are usually called non-living things( because they can't reproduce without help from a host).

The function of nucleic acids has a progression from DNA to RNA to proteins. This is called the central dogma of molecular biology.

Nucleic acids are formed by a linkage of polynucleotide chains with phosphodiester bonds. These polynucleotide chains are formed from monomers called NUCLEOTIDES.

A nucleotide is made up of 3 parts:

i) a nitrogenous base

ii) a five-carbon sugar

iii) at least one phosphate group.
