While looking at a cell under a microscope, a scientist is able to see a biological molecule. This molecule is a nucleic acid with a ladder structure and contains the nitrogenous bases adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. Based on this information, what conclusion can the scientist draw regarding this nucleic acid? (2 points)


The nucleic acid is RNA and would be found in the cell's nucleus.

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The correct answer will be option the nucleic acid is DNA and would be found in the cell's nucleus.

Explanation:

Two types of nucleic acids are found in the organisms - DNA and RNA, which acts as genetic material. Although they both are the nucleic acids they possess certain structural differences in their sugar component and nitrogenous bases.

According to the question, the nucleic acid shows four bases adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine which are present in the DNA as RNA do not contain thymine but contain uracil instead of that. This DNA is usually present in eukaryotes in packed forms inside a small organelle called Nucleus.

Thus, option the nucleic acid is DNA and would be found in the cell's nucleus is the correct answer.
