Nucleic Acid:
The monomer of a nucleic acid is a nucleotide. These nucleotides combine to form one of the two polymers of nucleic acids - DNA and RNA.
Fun fact: DNA means deoxyribnucliec acid and RNA means ribonucleic acids

Nucleic acids function to store and transmit genetic information. This covers a wide range of things, including pretty much every single thing you do.
Although nucleic acids are an important macromolecule, they aren't on the food pyramid or on any nutrition label. This is because they are in everything we eat that was once living and do consuming these living or once living things do not change any of our genetic information or possibly benefit or hurt us in anyway.
On the other hand, without us as individuals having nucleic acids, there would be no us or you or me. We wouldn't be able to live because your body couldn't create you or more cells, or direct cells or anything about you wouldn't be able to happen. You're not you without nucleic acids. You wouldn't be able to exist at all because nucleic acids make you. \
