Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the four main types of biological macromolecules: nucleic acids, lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins.
Recall that DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are molecules that store and transmit genetic information.
Understand that molecules responsible for genetic information storage and transmission belong to the category called nucleic acids.
Recognize that triglycerides are a type of lipid, polysaccharides are carbohydrates, and proteins have different functions such as enzymes and structural roles.
Conclude that since DNA and RNA carry genetic information, they are classified as nucleic acids.
