Location: Nucleic acids are found in the cell nucleus, cytoplasm (including ribosomes), mitochondria and chloroplasts, and in many viruses.
Structure: They are long polymers of nucleotides, each nucleotide made of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (DNA usually forms a double helix, RNA is usually single-stranded).
Function: DNA stores and transmits genetic information, while RNA helps make and regulate proteins and can also have catalytic roles.
