What else can I help you with?
Are nucleic acids found in ordinary human diets?
Yes. Any food made from something that was once alive will contain nucleic acids.
What are examples of pure substances found in the human body?
sodium chloride, glucose, amino acids, nucleic acids, triglycerides
Does the human body contain nitrogen?
Yes, all organisms need nitrogen because part of the nucleotides of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) is a "nitrogeneous base", which is essential for life. Nitrogen is also present in many organic compounds, including proteins and nucleic acids. By mass nitrogen is the 4th most abundant element in the body.
Why are nucleic acids called the blueprint of life?
Because it contains and can transmit all the information necessary to develop a separate, complete, human being.
What about some bacteria is important to human in term of our being able to make proteins and nucleic acid from the food we eat?
they can fix nitrogen
Are nucleic acids found in ordinary human diets?
Yes. Any food made from something that was once alive will contain nucleic acids.
What are the four major organic molecules important in human?
The four major organic molecules important in humans are carbohydrates, lipids (fats), proteins, and nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy, lipids are important for energy storage and cell structure, proteins are essential for cell structure and function, and nucleic acids carry genetic information.
Why are nucleic acids not included on nutrition labels?
Nucleic acids are not included on nutrition labels because they are not considered essential nutrients for human health. The focus of nutrition labels is on providing information about nutrients that are necessary for the body's functions and that must be obtained from the diet. Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are important for genetic material but are not required to be listed on nutrition labels for dietary purposes.
What are 2 nucleic acids found in the human body?
There are two: DNA and RNA.
What are examples of pure substances found in the human body?
sodium chloride, glucose, amino acids, nucleic acids, triglycerides
Does the human body store large amounts of nitrogen or routinely oxidize nucleic acids?
The human body stores 2.6 to 3 percent of nitrogen. The human body does routinely oxidize nucleic acids, however, the amounts of nitrogen remain within the same percentage.
What proteins and nucleic acids have in common?
they are both macromolecules but play different roles in the human body
Does the human body contain nitrogen?
Yes, all organisms need nitrogen because part of the nucleotides of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) is a "nitrogeneous base", which is essential for life. Nitrogen is also present in many organic compounds, including proteins and nucleic acids. By mass nitrogen is the 4th most abundant element in the body.
What do proteins and nucleic acids both have?
Protein and nucleic acid are both composed of amino acids. Completely wrong! Only proteins are composed of amino acids. They have nothing in common, even their chirality is opposite (proteins are levo while nucleic acids are dextro).
What are the four classes of biological molecules?
The four principle types of biological molecules are carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nuclei acids. These molecules are some of the most important things in a humans body. Without these biological molecules the human body could not function.
Why is nucleic acids important to the body?
The function of nucleic acids is highly important in many aspects of the human body. For example, the DNA (Deoxy-Ribonucleic Acid) of living things is composed of nucleotides, sugars, and phosphates, which are bonded together in a helix, forming a nucleic acid chain, which is further complementary base-paired with another nucleic acid, forming a double helical structure of the DNA. Through this structure of nucleic acids, the DNA in our body allows us to express or not express traits that are inherited from the parents. These traits are very important in expressing the uniqueness of each person, and can even determine our ability to survive in the changing environments. DNA studies can also be used in forensic science to aid in crime scene investigations!
How many chemical letters in The human genome?
There are four basic nucleic acids that make up DNA:A = adenineC = cytosineG = guanineT = thymine
