Your answer is RNA.

Nucleic acid can be defined as the biopolymers  which is known to be the most essential for all the life forms on the earth.

Nucleotides that are present in the nucleic acid are the monomers that is made up of 5 carbon sugar, nitogenous base, phosphate group.

If the sugar is ribose sugar then it is known as Ribonucleic acid. They are found in all the living components as the genetic material that transfers the information from parents to their children.

Why would it be expected that a swordfish would exhibit higher methyl mercury levels than a tilapia? (site 2)
kirill [66]

Answer:

Answer is explained below;

Explanation:

Mercury is a liquid metal that is released into the environment by both natural processes such as volcanic activity, weathering of rocks, etc and human activities such as waste materials from factories. The mercury that reaches the ocean and other water sources is converted into methylmercury by bacteria. Methylmercury is a neurotoxin that interferes with the nervous system and is easily absorbed by the human body.

The methylmercury is taken up by planktons. Small fishes consume large quantities of plankton. Tilapia is a small, short-lived freshwater fish. The methylmercury level in tilapia is lower than that of other fish. When large, long-living predatory fishes such as tuna, shark, king mackerel, swordfish, etc consume many smaller fish with low mercury levels, this causes accumulation of methylmercury at extremely high levels in their tissues over time i.e., the amount of mercury in such bigger fish biomagnifies.  

So large, long-lived predators like swordfish and shark often have the highest methyl mercury levels than a small, short-lived tilapia.
