Direction: Identify the word that best describes the following statement. Write your answer on
the space provided.
Ribonucleic Acid
1. These are molecules that code for hereditary traits by controlling the
production of protein.
2. These are carbohydrates that serves as a storing energy and are also
found in hormones and cell membrane components.
3. These are lipids which molecules are composed of fused rings of atoms
4. These are formed when two amino acids react with each other in an
acid-based reaction.
5. A nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions used in the
development and functioning of all modern living organisms.
6. It transfers genetic code needed for the creation of proteins from the
nucleus to the ribosome or the protein synthesis.

Ribonucleic Acid​

Answer 1

1. nucleic acids - these are the molecules also known as genetic material and code for the hereditary characteristics by regulating the production of the proteins.

2. Lipids - Lipids are the hydrocarbon and the major constituents of the cell membrane and molecules like hormones and give energy as well.

3. steroids - Steroids are lipids that have a fused ring structure and do not resembles other lipids however, have the same hydrophobic nature.

4. peptide - when two amino acids react with one another in an acid-base reaction there is a peptide bond form and the new molecule is called peptide and chains of such molecules known as polypeptides.

5. Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA - It has genetic information code in it as specific sequences, it is used to develop and functions of various living organisms.

6. Ribonucleic acid or RNA - RNA is the molecule that play important role in protein synthesis as it (mRNA) carries the genetic code needed for the creation of proteins to the ribosomes from the nucleus.

7. Monosaccharides - Monosaccharides are the simplest form of Carbohydrates and known as a basic subunit of carbohydrates as these are linked to form complex carbohydrate molecules.

8. Starch - Starch is a carbohydrate found mainly in plants as the storage form of carbohydrates and provides nutrition to various organisms including humans.

9. Isomers - are the ompounds that have the same molecular formula but different chemical structures are called isomers.

10. Carbohydrates - it is the organic molecule and major source of nutrition that is produced by green plants from carbon dioxide and water through the process of photosynthesis.
