After contributing few articles on Microsoft SQL Server, I thought it would be a good time to do something Oracle specific. This first Oracle article of mine describes some basic tasks but extends to more advanced features.
Nucleic acids, which are relatively strong acids found in the nuclei of cells, were first isolated in 1869. The nucleic acids are polymers with molecular weights as high as 100,000,000 grams per mole. They can be broken down, or digested, to form monomers known as nucleotides.
Nucleic acids are macromolecules that store, transmit and express the genetic information of a cell. There are two types of nucleic acids: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). In most cells, DNA is the stored form of genetic information transmitted from one generation to the next. DNA is copied in a process called replication and transmitted to the daughter cells.
