Solution

The correct option is A (i) RNA (ii) DNA
Nucleic acids are heterocyclic compounds with rings containing nitrogen and carbon. They are biopolymers and are of two types as DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). RNA helps in protein synthesis in association with ribosomes. DNA stores hereditary information in the form of code words and passes it to the next generation.
So, the correct answer is option A.
