Difference between Biopolymer and Nucleic acid

Biopolymer vs. Nucleic acid

Biopolymers are polymers produced by living organisms; in other words, they are polymeric biomolecules. Nucleic acids are biopolymers, or small biomolecules, essential to all known forms of life.

Similarities between Biopolymer and Nucleic acid

Biopolymer and Nucleic acid have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Biomolecule, DNA, Monomer, Nucleic acid sequence, Nucleotide, Organism, Polymer, Polynucleotide, Protein, RNA.

Biomolecule

A biomolecule or biological molecule is a loosely used term for molecules and ions that are present in organisms, essential to some typically biological process such as cell division, morphogenesis, or development.

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses.

Monomer

A monomer (mono-, "one" + -mer, "part") is a molecule that "can undergo polymerization thereby contributing constitutional units to the essential structure of a macromolecule".

Nucleic acid sequence

A nucleic acid sequence is a succession of letters that indicate the order of nucleotides forming alleles within a DNA (using GACT) or RNA (GACU) molecule.

Nucleotide

Nucleotides are organic molecules that serve as the monomer units for forming the nucleic acid polymers deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), both of which are essential biomolecules within all life-forms on Earth.
