2. Nucleic Acids
The FINAL Biomolecule

3. 6.3 Section Summary 6.3 – pages 157-163
The structure of nucleic acids
A nucleic (noo KLAY ihk) acid contains all cellular information (genetics) in the form of a code.
This means…
Nucleic acids contain directions to make proteins.

4. Nucleic Acids will have carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphate.
CHONP!

5. Do this on your notes…. Outline the ring in red.
Circle the C, H, O in green.
Circle the N in orange.
Circle the P in blue.
This is a 5-ring carbohydrate. You can’t see the “Carbons”, but they are at each point on the pentagon.

The structure of nucleic acids
Nucleotides are the monomers (subunits) of nucleic acids. When they are added together, they will build a nucleic acid.
Arranged in three parts—a simple sugar (red) , nitrogenous base (blue, and phosphate group(green).
