what are the building blocks of nucleic acids?
The building blocks (called monomers) of nucleic acids are nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of a nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.

No. Amino acids are monomers of proteins and nucleic acids is a macromolecule.

No. Nucleic acids are the building blocks of protein. There are various types of nucleic acids that form proteins.
NO, amino acids are the building blocks of proteins
Nucleic acids
that is a good question
A nucleic acid is a biological polymer (a chain composed of links) made of building blocks (the links) called nucleic acids. The most common nucleic acids are DNA and RNA.
Nucleotides, Nucleic Acids. Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine
No, nucleotides ar e the building blocks for nucleic acids such as DNA or RNA. The building blocks for proteins are amino acids.
DNA are made up of nucleic acids.They are made up of C,H,N and O
Nucleic acids are the building blocks of DNA and RNA.The five nucleic acids are:3 pyrimidine bases: Cytosine and Thymine (or Uracil in RNA) next to2 purine bases: Adenine and Guanine. None of them contains an amino group which is essential in protein formation of amino acids.Proteins are built of the building blocks called amino acids. (there are about twenty different amino acids)
Nucleic acids
An amino acid is the monomer used to create proteins. Nucleotides are the basic unit used to make nucleic acids (such as DNA). Therefore an amino acid is to a protein as a nucleotide is to a nucleic acid.
