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.
