Nucleic acid RESIDUES are what make up DNA. DNA codes for RNA, RNA codes for protein. Protein (or some specific ones, at least), is then required to form new DNA.

What are the 4 main categories of macromolecules in a cell?
Lipids carbohydrates proteins Nucleic Acids
Is nucleic acids the same as amino acids?
No. Amino acids are monomers of proteins and nucleic acids is a macromolecule.
Are Both DNA and RNA are proteins?
No. Instead, these are considered nucleic acids. Proteins are made up of sequence of amino acids and nucleic acids are made up of phosphate group, nitrogen base, and a pentose.
What are the 4 classes of macromolecules?
Lipids (oils and fats), Carbohydrates [Saccharides (Sugars) and Fibers etc.), Nucleic Acids, and Proteins (You can get from Meat, Eggs, etc.)Carbohydrates (e.g. glucose, sucrose), proteins (e.g. enzymes, transporters, receptors), lipids (e.g. phospholipids, cholesterol), nucleic acids (e.g. DNA, RNA).
The four main categories of large biological molecules?
CARBOHYDRATES, NUCLEIC ACID,LIPIDS, AND PROTEIN
How are nucleic acids and proteins related?
Nucleic acids make proteins.
Do proteins encode nucleic acids?
No. Nucleic acids encode proteins.
What are the four macromolecules of life?
The four major macromolecules are proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids.
Which element is found in nucleic acids but not in proteins?
phosphorus is present in nucleic acids and not in proteins
What are the 4 main categories of macromolecules in a cell?
Lipids carbohydrates proteins Nucleic Acids
What are the types of organic compounds?
Carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, and proteins.
Which of the following contain the genetic code carbohydrates lipids nucleic acids proteins?
nucleic acids
Are enzymes all nucleic acids?
No, nucleic acids are not enzymes. Nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides where as enzymes are proteins, but all proteins are not enzymes.
Who is the first man describe the central dogma that presents the relationship of nucleic acids and proteins?
crick
Is nucleic acids the same as amino acids?
No. Amino acids are monomers of proteins and nucleic acids is a macromolecule.
