RNAExplanation:RNA is known as ribonucleic acid. It is made up of ribose sugar, bases such as adenine, guanine, uracil and thymine and phosphate backbone. There are three types of RNA fund in cells: mRNA, tRNA and rRNA. mRNA is translated into proteins, tRNA (transfer RNA) carry amino acid during protein synthesis and rRNA (ribosomal RNA) found in the nucleus and associated with ribosomes during translation (protein synthesis).

Nucleic acids, which include DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), are made from monomers known as nucleotides. Each nucleotide has three components: a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. If the sugar is deoxyribose, the polymer is DNA. hope this helps you

RNA is a nucleic acid. An amino acid is considered a protein, a fat is considered a lipid, a polysaccharide is a carbohydrate. RNA would be the correct answer.
