Answer:

II. Both DNA, which stores genetic information and encodes protein sequences, and RNA, which is involved in the direct production of proteins, are nucleic acids.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are essential biomolecules for all living organisms. They carry genetic information and decode the production of proteins, necessary for the cell to reproduce. While they are formed of five-carbon sugars, a nitrogenous base they only have one phosphate group. They do not store energy. Also, glucose, cellulose and starch are not nucleic acids, they are carbohydrates.

Bumek [7]

Sternal angle marks the joint between the sternum and the 2nd rib.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Sternum is the breast bone which is a dorsi ventrally flattened bone present in thorax of human. It gives the support for the ribs where the ribs join. A sternum has three parts - Manubrium sterni, body of sternum and the xyphoid process.

The sternum has attachments of a total of 10 ribs and clavicle. The clavicle and the first rib joins in the Manubrium sterni, and the 3rd to 10th rib joins in the body of sternum. The 2nd rib joins in a facet which is partly in Manubrium sterni and partly in body of sternum. This place id also called the sternal angle. So the sternal angle marks the joint of 2nd rib to sternum.
