Question

how are proteins and nucleic acids related? they both provide energy. they both carry genetic information. the structure of proteins is determined by nucleic acids. the subunits of nucleic acids are also the subunits of proteins.

Explanation:

Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) contain the genetic code that determines the sequence of amino - acids in proteins during the processes of transcription and translation. Proteins do not carry genetic information in the same way nucleic acids do, and they do not have the same subunits as nucleic acids. While proteins can be a source of energy under certain conditions, it is not their primary function and it is not a key relationship with nucleic acids.

Answer:

The structure of proteins is determined by nucleic acids.
