2 Nucleic Acids are made of: Carbon Hydrogen Oxygen Nitrogen Phosphorous These elements are used to make the building blocks of nucleic acids…

3 DNA & RNA are Two Kinds of Nucleic Acids The building block of nucleic acids are: Nucleotides

4 What is a nucleotide made of? - 5 Carbon Sugar - Phosphate group - Nitrogenous base

5 What is DNA responsible for? Our characteristics or traits

6 Nucleic Acids DNA or RNA Nucleotides Phosphate Sugar Base Nucleic acid is a “polynucleotide”

7 Why are Nucleic acids important? DNA & RNA Both can replicate, transmit, and store hereditary information
