Answer:
RNAs and proteins can bind via electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, Hydrogen bonding interactions and base stacking interactions
Explanation:
Proteins bind to nucleic acids (i.e., both DNA and RNA) through different types of interactions:
- electrostatic interactions, also known as van der Waals interactions, refer to attractive/repulsive interactions between molecules depending on their electric charges.
- hydrophobic interactions, i.e., interactions between nonpolar molecules and water molecules
- Hydrogen bonding interactions resulting from the interaction between a hydrogen (H) atom that bind to an electronegative atom (e.g., N, O, F, etc), and another electronegative atom.
- base stacking interactions that result from the arrangement of RNA nucleotides
In this case, it is also important to highlight that the interaction will depend on the specific tertiary structure of ribosomal proteins and ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs).

Answer:
Explanation:Nitrogen is a naturally occurring element that is essential for growth and reproduction in both plants and animals. It is found in amino acids that make up proteins, in nucleic acids, that comprise the hereditary material and life's blueprint for all cells, and in many other organic and inorganic compounds.
