So enough of the snide answer below from someone with obviously too much time on his hands. Des-oxy vs. De-oxy riboneucleic acid is an archaic or older form of the same thing. Both mean ribonucleic acid with at least one oxygen removed.

First of all it is actually called Deoxybric Nucleic Acid or DNA. Its called that way because people believe that we were created by a superpowerul alien called Deoxys, because its Nucleic and because its a type of acid

What are the genetic materials and substances of the geometric compounds of hydrochloric acid?

Genetic material is made of desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA). These are polymers of units that are called nucleotides. Each nucleotide is consisting of three components: 1.) a phosphate group and 2.) a pentose sugar (desocyribose in case of DNA or ribose in case of RNA), which together constitute the backbone and 3.) a heterocyclic nucleobase. This base can be a purin (either adenine or guanine) or a pyrimidine (either thymine, cytosine or uracil). Hydrochlocic acid (HCl) is an anorganic acid. Compared to the genetic material described above where each nucleotide consists of many atoms of various elements like carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, hydrochloric acid is rather simple in its constituents (it has only two atoms: hydrogen and chlorine) and therefore highly flexible in its geometry.
