Best Answer

RNA has the base uracil rather than thymine that is present in DNA, so the answer to you question is.. thymine.

Uracil is not found in a DNA molecule. DNA contains the bases Thymine, Adenine, Cytosine, and Guanine. RNA contains Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine, but instead of Thymine, RNA has Uracil.

What does a group of three nucleotides code for?

DNA nucleotides 'code' for RNA copies of the DNA strand, but the true 'coding' of nucleotides happen in the ribosome where amino acids are matched to the RNA nucleotides. Nucleotides in DNA are only are present to store genetic data. When a particular gene needs to be used or a protein needs to be made, a RNA copy of the DNA will be made, using the slightly different RNA nucleotides (adenine, uracil, cytosine and guanine). This copy then leaves the nucleus and travels to the ribosome, where the RNA nucleotides are used to assemble amino acids into proteins. Each amino acid matches up to a three-nucleotide sequence.


What enzyme joins the nucleotides of a DNA strand together?

That depends on the process. During DNA replication, The nucleotides of the lagging strand (Okazaki fragments) are connected by DNA ligase. In transcription, the nucleotides of RNA are connected by RNA polymerase II.DNA Polymerse


Subunits of nucleic acids?

The monomers of nucleic acid polymers are the nucleotides. Each is composed of a sugar-phosphate backbone and one of four bases as a side group. In RNA the sugar is ribose, in DNA the sugar is deoxyribose.


How do nucleotides in the RNA molecule code for various amino acids How many nucleotides code for one amino acid?

Each nucleotide is made up of an organic base, a pentose sugar and a phosphate. Nucleotides can be arranged in various different orders and that order dictates which amino acid it codes for, three amino acids code for one nucleotide. Is this enough detail?

What is an RNA nucleotide?

RNA nucleotides are similar to DNA nucleotides, but instead of thymine, RNA has uracil. So, the RNA nucleotides are: Adenine, uracil, guanine, cytosine.


What is the only difference between the four nucleotides?

All of the four nucleotides have a nitrogenous base. Adenine: has a double ring, nitrogenous base and found in DNA and RNA Thymine:single ring with nitrogenous base. ONLY FOUND IN RNA. not DNA. that is a difference from the rest of the three nucleotides. Cytosine: single ring with nitrogenous base, found in both DNA and RNA Guanine: double ring with nitrogenous base, found in DNA and RNA. also i guess you can say there is another difference with the double and single rings.
