DNA is double stranded and uses four bases: Adenine Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine
RNA is single stranded and uses four bases as well with one difference: Adenine Uracil, Guanine, and Cytosine
RNA does not have Thymine, it uses Uracil instead.
The component of APT (adenosine triphosphate) that is also found in DNA and RNA is the nucleotide base adenine. In both DNA and RNA, adenine pairs with thymine (in DNA) or uracil (in RNA) during the formation of base pairs. Additionally, both DNA and RNA consist of a sugar and phosphate backbone, similar to the structure of ATP.
RNA and DNA both contain sugar molecules, but the sugar component in RNA is ribose, while the sugar component in DNA is deoxyribose. Ribose has an extra oxygen atom compared to deoxyribose, which is why DNA is called deoxyribonucleic acid.
Yes, DNA and RNA have different sugar . DNA contains deoxyribose sugar whereas RNA consists of ribose sugar, which are completely different from each other.
Both DNA and RNA contain a sugar phosphate group as the backbone to their structure. In DNA the sugar is deoxyribose, where as in RNA it is just ribose.
Uracil is the base that is a component of RNA only. Thymine is found in DNA, while adenine, cytosine, and guanine are present in both RNA and DNA.
Adenine is the component of ATP that is also found in DNA and RNA. It is one of the four nitrogenous bases that make up the nucleotides in these molecules.
No, adenine is a component of nucleic acids, but isn't a nucleic acid itself.
Guanine
Adenine occurs in both RNA and DNA molecules. It is uracil that replaces thymine in the RNA molecule.
The sugar ribose is unique to RNA, as well as the nitrogenous Uracil. Also, RNA has a single helix structure in comparison to the double helix of DNA
RNA is different from DNA in terms of structure and function. Structurally, RNA is single-stranded while DNA is double-stranded. Functionally, RNA is involved in protein synthesis and gene regulation, while DNA stores genetic information.
RNA is ribonucleic acid, which is practically the zipped portion of DNA which is Deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA 'zips' into two halfs and the zipped half is called the RNA. While the DNA is the main component of genetic information RNA is like a coder that is sent to the ribosome to build on and collect protiens.
