Question

Which of the following is a TRUE statement regarding the function of the important biological macromolecules?A. Lipids give short term energy to cells.B. Nucleic acids store genetic information that codes for traits.C. Carbohydrates are structural molecules that give shape to cells in hair, nails, and skin.D. Proteins are storage molecules that provide long term energy for cells.

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Nucleic acids store genetic information that codes for traits

Explanation:

There are four important biomolecules known which are also known as the molecules of life which are: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acid.

These all biomolecules play a very important role in the organism like the carbohydrates molecules provide energy to the cell, lipids provide a high amount of energy to the cell on oxidation, the proteins are the structural component of the skin, hair and nails.

In the given question, since only the function of the nucleic acid which is that it stores the genetic information which codes for the trait is correct therefore is the correct option.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
