Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides, which are made up of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids, which include both DNA and RNA. Amino acids, on the other hand, are the building blocks of proteins, which are not directly related to DNA and RNA. Genes are segments of DNA that code for a specific trait, and codons are sequences of nucleotides in RNA that code for specific amino acids during protein synthesis.
