4 Nucleic acids A nucleic acid is a polymer in which the monomer units are nucleotides. There are two Types of Nucleic Acids: DNA: Deoxyribonucleic Acid: Found within cell nucleus for storing and transfering of genetic information that are passed from one cell to other during cell division RNA: Ribonucleic Acid: Occurs in all parts of cell serving the primary function is to synthesize the proteins needed for cell functions. pentose Nucleotide

37 Epigenetics the term refers to gene expression caused by mechanisms other than changes in the underlying DNA sequence, hence the name epi- (Greek: επί- over, above). neo-lamarckism: genetic materials in the cytoplasm: environment led to adaptive changes that were passed on.
