Nucleic acids, specifically DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), contain the template for hereditary traits. DNA carries the genetic information necessary for the growth, development, and functioning of living organisms. It is composed of sequences of nucleotides, which encode the instructions for building proteins and regulating cellular processes. Through processes like replication and transcription, DNA passes these traits from one generation to the next.
