Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are primarily composed of three essential elements: carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O), which are found in their sugar components, and nitrogen (N), which is present in the nitrogenous bases. Additionally, DNA contains phosphorus (P) in its backbone, linking the sugar and phosphate groups. These elements combine to form the structural framework and the genetic information-carrying components of nucleic acids.
