Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and RNA, which are the genetic material of cells. They also participate in energy transfer through molecules like ATP. They do not combine with oxygen to produce energy, are not the building blocks of proteins like cell receptors, do not form structural elements in the cell membrane, and do not store glucose as fat.
