(choose all that apply)
- It is a polymer composed of nucleic acids.
- It is often found as a small molecule combined with cell surface proteins and lipids and serves as a kind of name tag, identifying "self" to distinguish it from "nonself".
- It is a polymer composed of carbohydrates and one of the molecular building blocks of the cell wall.
- DNA is the molecule that stores the genetic information.
- In eukaryotes, it is primarily found in the nucleus, a membrane-bound structure that contains the metabolic and chemical processes of gene expression and mRNA transcription.
- It is a polymer composed of amino acids and is one of the important subunits in cell membranes.
- In prokaryotes, it is found in the nucleoid region, but prokaryotes don't have a membrane-bound nucleus.
