What is the DNA and RNA for strands of nucleotides?
DNA and RNA:AdenineCytosineGuanineDNA only:ThymineRNA only:Uracil
Is RNA made from 1 strands of DNA?
No, RNA is synthesized from a single strand of DNA through a process called transcription. During transcription, the DNA helix unwinds, and an enzyme called RNA polymerase builds a complementary RNA molecule by pairing RNA nucleotides with the DNA template strand. This resulting single-stranded RNA molecule can then go on to perform various functions in the cell.
What is specific base pairing?
a pair of nitrogenous bases,consisting of a purine linked by hydrozen bonds to a pyrimidine that connects the complementary strands . the base pair are adenine,thymine,cytosine & guanine in DNA & uracil in place of thymine in RNA.
Why the DNA molecule differs from the RNA molecule?
RNA and DNA work together in a way despite the differences. When your DNA calls for a protein your body needs to make, RNA within a cell has the DNA separate into two 'strands', and the RNA will attach to the other half of the DNA to scan the coded 'message' made of the nitrogen bases; adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine in a specific pattern. This RNA is called messenger RNA. It then floats into the cytoplasm of a cell and transfers the code of a protein to a ribosome; Ribosomes create proteins. As the RNA transfers the coded protein, Transfer RNA comes in and decodes the protein, to slowly build a molecule of that protein. When the molecule is complete and the code is decoded, you get a protein or amino acid. IF YOU'RE WONDERING THE DIFFERENCES: DNA has two strands to make a twisted ladder shape. RNA is a single strand. DNA has the nitrogen bases: Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine RNA has: Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, and Guanine. Adenine in DNA pairs with Thymine. Adenine in RNA pairs with Uracil instead.
Does strands of the RNA contain adenine?
yes
The RNA molecule is usually made up of how many strands?
The RNA molecule is usually made up of a single strand. This is unlike the DNA molecule which has double strands.
How many strands of nitrogenous bases does an RNA molecule have?
two
The RNA molecule is made up of how many strands?
1
How many strands of nucleotides does a molecule of RNA contain?
one strand can make up a RNA molecule
HOW MANY STRANDS MAKES UP AN RNA MOLECULE?
Just 1 strand. DNA has 2.
What is the DNA and RNA for strands of nucleotides?
DNA and RNA:AdenineCytosineGuanineDNA only:ThymineRNA only:Uracil
How many strands are in a RNA?
One as RNA is single stranded
How many strands are in RNA?
one strand
How many polynucleotide strands do RNA have?
1
How many strands of RNA are transcribed from the two unzipped strands of DNA?
One
What molecule will proofread the new DNA strands?
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that connect the new nucleotides together and proofreads them.
Which of the following is true regarding complementary base pairing in DNA and RNA molecules?
Although the base pairing between two strands of DNA in a DNA molecule can be thousands to millions of base pairs long, base pairing in an RNA molecule is limited to short stretches of nucleotides in the same molecule or between two RNA molecules.
