Nucleac acids carry genetic information and form the structure of cells. They are universal in living things. They are found in cells and viruses.

Nucleic acids are things that carry genetic information directing all cellular functions. It is made up of linked together nucleotides. They are found in all living cells and viruses. If they are in the form of DNA or RNA then they help control cellular function and heredity.

Nucleic acids are things that carry genetic information. They also form the structure of cells. The are found in living things. They are important to the body because they help with cell structure and other things with keeping genetic information

Nucleic acids are things that carry your genetic information that direct all of your cell funtions. They are made up of things called nucleotides that are linked together. They are found in things like viruses and living cells. They also help control heredity and your cell function. but only if they are in the form of DNA and RNA!

Nucleic Acids are organic molecules found in the nuclei of cells. DNA and RNA, the best-known nucleic acids, govern heredity and the chemical processes in the cell. nucleic Acids help carrygenetic information that directs all cellular functions.

Nucleic acids carry the genetic makeup of all the structures cells. They are universal to all the living things in the world they are found in cells.

Nucleic acids are in all of our cells. They have genetic info. They are imporant because they are needed in the structure of all living things. They help make all the cell functions happen correctly and you stay healthy!

Nucleic acids have certain types such as DNA, RNA, mRNA, and tRNA. They carry genetic information directing all cellular functions. They help to tell people apart from one another and help to tell us more about our traits and genetics and stuff.
