Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are the only known molecules that are able to store genetic information and transmit genetic information (copy it and pass it on). They are found in all living things on Earth.
Similarly, do lipids store genetic information? The main and only function of nucleic acids is to hold, protect, replicate, and express the genetic information carried by the cell i the form of proteins. Although, the RNA is a capable catalyst, and can catalyze cell reactions. Lipids are structural molecules that form the backbone of each cell.
Consequently, which macromolecule stores and communicates genetic information?
Nucleic acids are the fourth group of biological macromolecules. Nucleic acids are complex macromolecules! that store and transmit genetic information. Repeating subunits, called nucleotides, make up nucleic acids i Nucleotides are composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
Which macromolecule is inherited from parents?
DNA
