Molecular structure of DNA consists of Nucleotides that carry genetic information. However RNA also has nucleotides but it is not as stable as DNA. So, I think the stability of DNA structure is what "makes it uniquely qualified to function as information carrier".
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
The DNA carries a digital code in bases that enable with no loss of information
The DNA carries a digital code in bases that enable with no loss of information
DNA
No. DNA is not a vestigial structure as it has not ceased to function
The structure of DNA relates to its function greatly as the covalent bonds form the backbone of the DNA and provide the overall structure while the weak hydrogen bonds allow the DNA to unzip when needed to undergo replication.

DNA is packaged very tight by proteins. Proteins found around the DNA supports both the structure and functions. The proteins and the DNA make up the chromosomes. Proteins and DNA in animal cells are chromatin! DNA contains information because of the DNA's structure!
The correct answer is DNA.
DNA
DNA sequences do not determine the function of any protein. DNA sequences determine the structure of the protein. That is particular amino acid sequence in protein only.
The relationship between the structure and function of the nucleus is that the nucleus is an enclosed organelle and is large enough to hold the DNA. This is important because the nucleus must hold and protect the cells DNA.
Biomolecular structure is the intricate folded, three-dimensional shape that is formed by a molecule of protein, DNA, or RNA, and that is important to its function.
