No. Nucleic acids are formed by a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a phosphate group and nitrogen base (purines and pyrimidines).

Is nucleic acids the same as amino acids?

No, nucleic acids are molecules that store and transmit genetic information, such as DNA and RNA, while amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids, not nucleic acids.

Are amino acids a nucleic acid?

No, amino acids are not nucleic acids. Amino acids are organic compounds that combine to form proteins, whereas nucleic acids are biological macromolecules that store genetic information, such as DNA and RNA.

Do nucleic acids contain amino acid?

No, nucleic acids do not contain amino acids. Nucleic acids are polymers made up of nucleotides, which consist of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

Nucleotides are to nucleic acids as amino acids are to?

An amino acid is the monomer used to create proteins. Nucleotides are the basic unit used to make nucleic acids (such as DNA). Therefore an amino acid is to a protein as a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid.


Is a nucleic acid made up of amino acids?

No. A nucleic acid is made up of nucleotides. Proteins are made up of amino acids.


Is nucleic acid in the Amino group?

No, nucleic acids are not found in the amino group. Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are polymers made up of nucleotide units, which consist of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. The amino group (-NH2) is a functional group commonly found in amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. While both nucleic acids and amino acids are essential biomolecules, they serve different roles in biological systems.
