Which statements explain the primary difference between the structure of a nucleic acid and the structure of a protein? O A nucleic acid has alternating base pairs. A protein has alternating peptides. Nitrogen bases form the backbone of a nucleic acid. Peptides form the backbone of a protein. Nucleotides link together to form a nucleic acid. Amino acids link together to form a protein. A nucleic acid is held together by the sugar-phosphate complex. A protein is held together by the carbon-carbon bonds.
