Question

___________ contains information required for the growth and function of an organism

  1. Nucleus
  2. DNA
  3. RNA
  4. Ribosomes

hintHint:

The double stranded structure that contains thymine instead of uracil as nitrogenous base.

The correct answer is: DNA


    • DNA or deoxyribose nucleic acid carries all the information for the growth and functioning of an organism.
    • DNA is a double helical structure with two strands that are anti-parallel to each other.
    • The DNA contains nucleotides made up of nitrogenous bases, sugars and phosphates.
    • DNA has adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine as nitrogenous bases.
    • The information for the functioning of an individual depends upon the sequence of arrangement of the nucleic acids on the DNA strand.
