DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is composed of phosphates, a pentose sugar (in DNA deoxyribose), and one of four nitrogen containing bases (A,T,C, or G). Deoxyribose contains a singe Hydrogen atom where Ribose (the RNA sugar equivalent) contains a hydroxyl group (-OH). RNA also does not contain the DNA base, Thymine, and contains Uracil in it's place to bind to Adenine in Thymine's place. There are many types of RNA and each of them has additional differences as well, but these are the basics of the chemical differences.

∙ 12y agothe rna can get out of the nucleus and DNA cant so the rna comes out and goes to the ribosomes to make protein theyy call the trna and the trna brings amino acid and makes protein
(***hope that helpedd**) by the wayy im in 7th grade[=
im pretty sure and positive that's what you needed to know(:

How does DNA function in a living cell?
to have genetic information of the organism
What is ribosomes function?
RibosomesProduces proteins.
What Carrying the genetic code and determining an organism's structure and function are the functions of DNA or RNA?
DNA
What are the Examples of intra cellular enzymes?
RNA/DNA polymerases - Reverse Transcriptase. Helicase. Binding proteins. Enzymes simply act on a substrate - there are tonnes.
Are bio-catalysts always proteins?
There are a few RNA catalysts are known, but the majority is only proteins. Biochemical reactions are speed by enzymes by lowering the activation energy. Enzymes like other proteins are coded in DNA.
Which statement best illustrates the function of RNA in relation to DNA and proteins?
Proteins make RNA, which then creates DNA.
How does DNA function in a living cell?

Is polymerase A Protein?
RNA and DNA polymerases are enzymes and hence, they are proteins.
Are many enzymes proteins?
Yes most of the enzymes are proteins. There are a few RNA enzymes known as ribozymes exist. Proteins are all coded in DNA in the nucleus.
What two biomolecules can carry the genetic information for a virus?
DNA and RNA. Viruses that use RNA often have to have enzymes that convert the RNA to DNA.
Does protein form RNA?
No, RNA is the cells' chemical messenger that carries instructions from DNA in the nucleus to the rest of the cell about when to make proteins and which ones. DNA makes RNA however the process does involve some enzymes that are proteins
Are enzymes and antibodies examples of DNA RNA or proteins?
It is a protein because i say so. LOL
What is ribosomes function?
RibosomesProduces proteins.
Are DNA and RNA enzymes?
No, DNA and RNA (of which there are several types) are nucleic acids. All enzymes (if one adheres to the strict definition of the term) are proteins. Proteins are made of sequences of amino acids (coded for by nucleic acid genome) joined by peptide bonds or are polypeptides until they adopt their functional shape i.e. become enzymes and can act on specific substrate molecules. DNA is the genetic code (i.e. 'the stuff of genes') for most organisms, some viruses have an RNA genome. Summary - DNA/RNA contain the instructions to build proteins.
