What is the major difference between normal DNA double helix and RNA double helix?
The term double helix refers to the structure formed by double-stranded molecules of nucleic acids. Only DNA forms a double helix because RNA is only single-stranded.
How does DNA differ structurally from RNA?
The DNA and RNA differs in three aspects. Their difference are: RNA has single strand nucleic acid; RNA sugar is ribose while DNA has deoxyribose; and the nucleotides of RNA is uracil while the DNA has thymine.
What is the difference between RNA and DNA with respect to the bases involved?
RNA has uracil; DNA has thymine (5-methyl uracil). The other difference (and the reason for the difference in the names) is that the sugar in RNA is ribose, but in DNA it is 2-deoxyribose.
What is the difference between cytidine in DNA and cytidine in RNA?
Cytidine is composed of one molecule each of cytosine and ribose. The cytosine molecule is the same between DNA and RNA, the difference is in the sugar backbone. In RNA it is ribose while in DNA it is deoxyribose.
How is RNA different from DNA list 3 things?
RNA contains a ribose sugar that ha oxygen while DNA has deoxyribose sugar which does not have oxygen. DNA has the base Thymine, while RNA has the base Uracil. RNA is single stranded while DNA is double stranded in a double helix.
A major difference in RNA as compared to DNA is the presence of the sugar?
DNA and RNA are similar compounds with a few differences. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose; in RNA, it is ribose.
A major difference in RNA as compared to DNA is the presence of the base?
it is when two rhibosomes enter a chloroplast and they unite.uracil
What is major difference between normal DNA helix and RNA helix?
DNA is double stranded while RNA only has one strand.
What the difference between rna and dna in number of strands?
the difference between DNA and RNA AS DNA ARE DOUBLE STANDED AND RNA IS SINGLE STANDED
Difference between the DNA and RNA?
the difference is that DNA is a double helix and RNA is a single chain
What is the major difference between normal DNA double helix and RNA double helix?
The term double helix refers to the structure formed by double-stranded molecules of nucleic acids. Only DNA forms a double helix because RNA is only single-stranded.
What is a major difference between DNA replication DNA transcription?
RNA molecules produced by transcription are much shorter in length than DNA molecules produced by replication.
What is the difference between virus and baterias?
Bacteria has both DNA and RNA where as Virus has either DNA or RNA

What is a major difference between DNA replication and transcription?
RNA molecules produced by transcription are much shorter in length than DNA molecules produced by replication.
Does RNA include Guanine?
Yes! The only difference in RNA from DNA is that RNA has Uracil instead of Thymine.
