The two major types are: DNA deoxyribonucleic acid, and RNA ribonucleic acid. DNA can be found in the nucleus and holds the hereditary informa"on and is in charge of rhe hereditary characters"cs. RNA can also be found inside the nucleus although unlike DNA, RNA is able to leave the nucleus. It sorts the hereditary informa"on found in the DNA and then will further use it to synthesize proteins. While both DNA and RNA can be found in the nucleus (center of the cell), only RNA is capable of leaving the nucleus. DNA contains a vast amount of hereditary informa!on and is responsible for the inheritable characteris!cs of living organisms. RNA is responsible for deciphering the hereditary informa!on in DNA and using it to synthesize proteins. Your Answer: Ques!on 7 10 / 10 pts Complete the following DNA strand, and indicate how man
