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.
