Yes, DNA and all forms of RNA are nucleic acids.
RNA: Ribo Nucleic Acid mRNA: Messenger Ribo Nucleic Acid tRNA: Transfer Ribo Nucleic Acid
The name for a series of three nucleic acid bases on the tRNA is called an anticodon. It is complementary to the codon on the mRNA during protein synthesis, allowing tRNA to bring the correct amino acid to the ribosome.
The main nucleic acids involved in protein synthesis are mRNA (messenger RNA) and tRNA (transfer RNA). mRNA carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome, where protein synthesis occurs. tRNA brings the correct amino acids to the ribosome based on the codons on the mRNA, helping to assemble the protein.
From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code
Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a single stranded nucleic acid that carries genetic information from the DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, where proteins are synthesized.
RNA: Ribo Nucleic Acid mRNA: Messenger Ribo Nucleic Acid tRNA: Transfer Ribo Nucleic Acid
The name of a series of 3 nucleic acids bases on the tRNA is called anticodon. The name for a series of 3 nucleic acid bases contained on mRNA is called codon.
The main nucleic acid in a cell is DNA - deoxyribonucleic acid. RNA - ribonucleic acid - can also be present. RNA can be mRNA, tRNA or rRNA.

mRNA, tRNA and rRNA.
The component found in nucleic acid responsible for protein building is messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes where proteins are synthesized.

Ribosomes work with mRNA and tRNA in the protein synthesis process of translation. The ribosome attaches itself to an mRNA nucleic acid and moves down until hitting the stop codon while within the ribosome, tRNA provides the anticodons and forms a amino acid chain.
Nucleic acid and proteins are different macromolecules that does not contain the other. However, there are some cases where the protein histone is wrapped by the DNA which then coils to form chromosomes.
