DNA and RNA molecules are polymers (like polysaccharides and proteins). The building blocks (monomers) of nucleic acids are nucleotides. Each nucleotide is made up of a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
In terms of elements, they are made up of P, O, N, C, and H. In a recent find, though, a bacterial strain was using As instead of P.

What organelle is made up of DNA and RNA in the nucleus?
The Nucleolus is made up of DNA and RNA in the nucleus.
Is DNA longer or shorter than rna?
Since both proteins and DNA are polymers (molecules arranged like chains made up of smaller molecules called monomers), their sizes cannot be compared. However, the monomer of DNA (called a nucleic acid) is smaller than the monomer of a protein (called an amino acid)
What organic biomolecule is DNA and RNA?
DNA and RNA contain are made up of the biomolecule nucleic acids.
What is the molecule that forms the backbone of DNA and RNA?
Components that form the backbone of DNA and RNA are the same: repeating units of a sugar and a phosphate. In case of DNA, sugar is deoxyribose and in case of RNA the sugar is ribose. Both of these molecules are very important in the filed of genetics.
What macromolecules are made of nucleotides?
RNA and DNA.
What are two larger molecules made up of nucleotides?
DNA and RNA are made up of nucleotides.
DNA and RNA are made up of these organic molecules that encodes protein sequences?
it is a nucleic acid :-)

What macromolcule is made up of nucleic acids?
DNA and RNA.
What is the backbone of DNA and RNA?
The backbone of DNA is made up of deoxyribose, a sugar, and are linked together by phosphodiester bonds. RNA is similar but the sugar is called ribose.
What macromolecule is made up nucleic acids?
Both Dna and RNA are made of nucleotides. RNA comes in tRNA, mRNA and rRNA forms as as well.
What macromolecule is made up of nucleic acids?
DNA and RNA are made up of nucleic acids.
How does DNA differ structurally from RNA?
The DNA and RNA differs in three aspects. Their difference are: RNA has single strand nucleic acid; RNA sugar is ribose while DNA has deoxyribose; and the nucleotides of RNA is uracil while the DNA has thymine.
