Question 8
Which of these is not an importance of nucleic acids?
The right answer is the one marked above.
Insulating the body is the work of the subcutaneous fat layer — a lipid, not a nucleic acid.
The other three are all real. Nucleic acids store genetic information, transmit it from one generation to the next, take part in protein synthesis, and control every life process of the cell — those controls being written in the DNA.
