It serves as a base and gains a proton, which charges it positively.
What is amino acid?
Proteins are made up of substances called amino acids. Proteins and amino acids are the components of life. Amino acids are the byproducts of the digestion or breakdown of proteins. Amino acids are used by the body to create proteins that aid in the digestion of meals.
Organic substances known as amino acids have both an amino and a carboxyl group. They can be differentiated by the functional group R that is attached. Six of the twenty amino acids that make up proteins have R-groups that are either bases or acids.

R, S, and T always have the same percentage composition, while X, Y, and Z always have the same percentage composition. Chargaff's rule is then a viable theory that can be used in this situation.
- The DNA of any species of any organism must have a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of the purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, according to Chargaff's principles.
- More specifically, the ratio of guanine and adenine to cytosine and thymine must be the same. This pattern is present in both the strands of the DNA.
- The formula comes as A + G = T + C = 1
- In this universe there are six base pairs R,S,T,X,Y and Z. composition of R,S and T is always same thus these can be considered the purines.
- The percentage composition of X,Y and Z is always the same thus these can be considered the pyrimidines.
- applying Chargaff's rule to these bases:
R + S + T = X + Y + Z
= 1:1
Thus, the nucleic acid will contain six base pairs where bonds are formed between RX, SY and TZ.

Answer: It is D. As we know, DNA stores information. Well, DNA is a nucleic acid, so the answer would be nucleic acids. For the second part, DNA encodes the information the cell needs to make proteins. So, the answer for the second part is protein.
