C. Only DNA is needed to create new cells
D. Only DNA contains genetic information

Answer 1

D. Only DNA contains genetic information

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA has the main function of carrying genetic information.

On the other hand, lipids and carbohydrates have the main functions of being energy sources.

Lipids are used for long term energy storage, while carbohydrates are used for quick energy.

DNA is different from lipids and carbohydrates because it contains genetic information, while the others don't.

So, the correct answer is D. Only DNA contains genetic information
