Question

7.) responsible for storing and transmitting genetic information
8.) serve in structures such as cell walls

Explanation:

Response
Question 7
Brief Explanations

The function of storing and transmitting genetic information is associated with nucleic acids (like DNA and RNA). DNA stores genetic info, and RNA helps transmit it during processes like transcription and translation.

Brief Explanations

Molecules that serve in structures like cell walls: in plant cell walls, cellulose (a polysaccharide, a type of carbohydrate) is a major component. In fungal cell walls, chitin (a polysaccharide) is present. In bacterial cell walls, peptidoglycan (a complex polymer) is key. Carbohydrates (like cellulose) are structural components here.

Answer:

Nucleic Acids (specifically DNA and RNA)
