Nucleic acids readily pair up their nucleotides by a specific pattern, and never falter from this pattern. As such, they never lose the information they store. as well, because of the double-helix formation the nucleic acids take, it keeps massive quantities of information in a very compact but accessible size.

Can you give me the characteristics of freezing?
The characteristics of freezing is when water (or any other liquid) turns into a solid. This happens when the liquid gets cold and the molecules get closer together. When the molecules get closer together, they form a solid (ice).
What role does the functional group play in the molecules in which they are found?
