Best Answer

Thymine is not present in RNA, only in DNA. The base pairs for RNA are adenine & uracil, and guanine & cytosine. Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA.

What are the four nitrogen base of DNA and what are the four nitrogen base of RNA?

DNA's four bases are adenine (A), guanine (G), thymine (T), and cytosine (C). Adenine and guanine are complementary, as are thymine and cytosine. RNA is practically the same, except that thymine is replaced with uracil (U) - meaning that when RNA replicates DNA, any thymine needed is replaced with uracil. Uracil is still compatible with cytosine, though.

What base is missing on RNA and what other base replaces it?

No nitrogen base is missing. You may be referring to the fact that DNA contains the nitrogen base thymine, while RNA contains the nitrogen base uracil. They both contain adenine, cytosine, and guanine.
