Deoxyribose is more stable! If you look at the structure of ribose in RNA you see that it has OH Groups at C2 and C3, both of which are reactive. We need the one at C3 to react with the next phosphate, but C2 can only lead to crosslinking; damaging the structure. If this happens to RNA its not a big deal for we can always produce another strand. If its DNA its a serious mutation, so cells have to use deoxyribose for DNA for it doesnt have a free OH at C2. Deoxyribose is produced from ribose. Using deoxyribose for RNA is an unnecessary waste of energy; the crosslinking doesnt happen that often anyway.
Ribose sugar is in RNA.Deoxyriaose sugar is in DNA.
Ribose is the sugar phosphate in RNA. The sugar phosphate group in DNA is called deoxyribose.
deoxyribose is not in rna but it is in dna it is the ribose sugar that is the simple sugar for rna
It helps, sometimes to know, what the letters mean because they can really tell you the answer. DNA means deoxyribonucleic acid. While RNA stands for ribonucleic acid.
Deoxyribose is found in DNA as DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid whereas RNA stands for Ribonucleic Acid
deoxyribose is DNA (DeoxyriboNucleicAcid)
It is in DNA. Ribose is in RNA
yes it is
RNA
In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose. In RNA, it is ribose.
Ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA. They are quite similar.
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA. Ribose is the sugar found in RNA.
DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose and RNA contains the sugar ribose. Deoxyribose sugar has one less oxygen atom than ribose.
Uracil
DNA has the deoxyribose sugar, while RNA has the ribose sugar.
In RNA, there is ribose that replaces deoxyribose.
The sugar that is part of a nucleotide is a 5-carbon atom sugar in its ring form. It will either be ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA. The "deoxy" simply means that the ribose molecule has lost an oxygen. That missing oxygen happens to be from the second carbon, so the more correct name for deoxyribose is 2-deoxyribose.
The sugar of RNA is ribosewhile the sugar of DNA is deoxyribose.
Ribose is the sugar that forms the backbone of RNA, along with phosphate. The form of this sugar found in DNA is deoxyribose - which has lost an oxygen from its 2 position.
DNA has got Deoxyribose sugar. RNA has got Ribose sugar.
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA. Ribose is the sugar found in RNA.
In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose. In RNA, it is ribose.
DNA's sugar is deoxyribose, and RNA's sugar is ribose. (DNA = deoxyribose nucleic acid, RNA = ribonucleic acid)
Ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA. They are quite similar.
Deoxyribose is the sugar found in DNA. Ribose is the sugar found in RNA.
DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose and RNA contains the sugar ribose. Deoxyribose sugar has one less oxygen atom than ribose.
