Kisachek [45]

The carbohydrates found in our genetic material are the two sugars deoxyribose and ribose.

Carbohydrates are defined as organic compounds which occur in food and living tissue and include starch, sugars and cellulose. They are composed of hydrogen, oxygen and carbon.

Deoxyribose is a sugar found in the structure of DNA, while the sugar ribose is found in the structure of RNA.

DNA is the molecule that carries the cell's genetic information while RNA is the molecule involved in synthesis of protein using the coded information received from DNA.

Both DNA and RNA are termed as the genetic molecules of life.
