Ribonucleic acid (RNA)
Chromosomes mainly consist of nucleoproteins, having two components, nucleic acids and proteins. One of these should obviously constitute the genetic material. Experiments demonstrating that nucleic acids and not the proteins contain the genetic information will be briefly discussed in this section.
