∙ 12y agoNucleic acids are biological molecules essential for life, and include DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). Together with proteins, nucleic acids make up the most important macromolecules; each is found in abundance in all living things, where they function in encoding, transmitting and expressing genetic information. Nucleic acids were first discovered by Friedrich Miescher in 1871.[1] Experimental studies of nucleic acids constitute a major part of modern biological and medical research, and form a foundation for genome and forensic science, as well as the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries.

Nucleic acids store and transmit genetic information in cells. They are involved in protein synthesis and help regulate various cellular processes. Both DNA and RNA are examples of nucleic acids.

Deoxyribose nucleic acid, transcribed into, Ribose nucleic acid.
RNA is a nucleic acid. It is a molecule that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and gene expression in cells.
The function of viral nucleic acid is to carry the genetic information that dictates how the virus replicates within infected host cells. This information is essential for the virus to hijack the cell's machinery and produce more virus particles.

nucleic acids are DNA and RNA. (mostly known as DNA) its primary function is to contain genetic information about the living organism which carries it. Helping it, is its monomer. (a monomer is a single cell in which helps its host, in this case, the host is Nucleic Acids.) Nucleic Acids monomer is nucleotide. Nucleotide is the other part of the Nucleic Acids and like i said, helps it contain its genetic information, or DNA.
