Which of the following are not properties of nucleic acids?

smallest of the four main biological macromolecules
responsible for storing and carrying genetic codes
building blocks of carbohydrates
made up of dna and rna

The answer is option A and C

Among the four most important macromolecules nucleic acids are not the smallest macromolecule. They are large macromolecules that contains sugar, phosphate that forms the backbone of DNA and RNA.

Nucleic acids are not the building blocks of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are made of monomers of simple sugars known as glucose.

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.

explanation:

i didn't have the answer choices , but i tried my best.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
