Biology
1 answer:
max2010maxim [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Please read the explanation section.

Explanation:

Genetic information:

Nucleic acids are the molecules that build the code of the genetic information of an organism.

There are two nucleic acids that are used in the repair, reproduction, and protein synthesis process. Those are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

DNA and RNA are the polymers that are made up of monomers called nucleotides.

Double helix:

A DNA molecule is a double helix which is made up of two strands of polymers. These two strands of polymers are complementary to each other but not identical to each one. Hydrogen bonding holds the base pairs of these two strands together.

The DNA base pairs are made up of Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine

Generally RNA does not use thymine, it uses uracil.

RNA is used to direct the production process of proteins by the cell.

RNA is generated by copying DNA.
