- Presence of Pyrimidine and Purine
- Nucleic acids store and transmit genetic information that makes them different from other macromolecules.
- Nucleic acids contain ribose and deoxyribose sugar connected with bases.
- Nucleotides are joined by covalent bonds called Phosphodiester.Both DNA and RNA are macromolecules called nucleic acid's
Polysaccharides, proteins, nucleic acids, and some lipids are macromolecules made of repeating smaller units. Polysaccharides consist of repeating sugar units, proteins of amino acids, nucleic acids of nucleotides, and some lipids of hydrocarbon chains.
The nucleic acids that comprise DNA are guanine, adenine, cytosine, and thymine. The nucleic acids that comprise RNA (which is produced as a copy of DNA and a template for making proteins, and also makes up the ribosomes, among other things) are the same, except instead of thymine you have uracil. There are many other nucleic acids that play different roles in the cell, but those are the main ones.
The four main macromolecules found in living things are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Carbohydrates are used for energy storage and structure, proteins are involved in various functions within the cell, lipids are important for storing energy and forming cell membranes, and nucleic acids store and transmit genetic information.
Lipids- Molecules mostly made up of Carbon and Hydrogen atoms that makes fats, oils, and waxCarbohydrates-Compound composed carbon, hydrogen, oxygen in a ratio of 1:2 Carbon and Hydrogen atomsProteins- are made of small carbon compounds called Nucleic AcidsNucleic Acids-small compounds of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, and sometimes sulfur

No they're not. A nucleic acid is a polymer of nucleotides (1 nitrogenous base, 1 phosphate group and 1 pentose) bonded together by a phosphodiester bond. The two most famous nucleic acids are RNA and DNA An amino acid is a molecules that makes up polypeptides chains and proteins

The pancreas secretes enzymes that help digest nucleic acids in the small intestine. These enzymes break down nucleic acids into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body for energy and cellular functions.
