What would not be true for nucleic acids?
| 1. | They are polynucleotides. |
| 2. | Together with polysaccharides and polypeptides, these comprise the true macromolecular fraction of any living tissue or cell. |
| 3. | A nucleotide has three chemically distinct components: a heterocyclic compound, a monosaccharide, and a phosphoric acid or a phosphate. |
| 4. | The hexose sugar found in polynucleotides is either ribose or 2’deoxyribose. |

Regarding methodologies used in sequencing human genome:
1. Only I is correct
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
| I: | Identifying all the genes that are expressed as RNA is referred to as Expressed Sequence Tags. |
| II: | The blind approach of simply sequencing the whole set of genome that contained all the coding and non-coding sequence, and later assigning different regions in the sequence with functions is referred to as Sequence Annotation. |
2. Only II is correct
3. Both I and II are correct
4. Both I and II are incorrect
