Which of these is what DNA and RNA are? * O A. lipids
O B. proteins
O C. nucleic acids
O D. carbohydrates

DNA and RNA are both examples of nucleic acids

They consist of a strand of nucleotides with a phosphate group, a 5′ sugar and a nitrogenous base.

Extra info: DNA and RNA molecules are polymers. DNA is double stranded, whereas RNA is single stranded.

The nucleotides of DNA can pair together by base pairing, creating a strand that is complementary to its pair

Various types of RNA exist which have roles in protein synthesis as well as regulation of cellular programmes by fine-tuning gene expression.
