Assuming that it is a eukaryotic cell, consisting of membrane bound organelles, the nucleic acid is DNA, and it would be located and or found in the nucleus of the cell.

Answer:

The nucleic acid is DNA and would be found in the cell’s nucleus.

Explanation:

DNA is a nucleic acid. It is a polynucleotide made of its building block called nucleotide. Each nucleotide is made up of three parts: a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar, deoxyribose and a phosphate group. In DNA, nitrogenous bases are two purines Adenine (A), guanine (G) and two pyrimidines cytosine (C) and thymine (T). The DNA is made up of two strands that are twisted around each other to form a double helix as proposed by Watson and crick. DNA is the genetic material of an organism and it stores all the genetic information presnt in the nucleus of the cell.
