It is single stranded RNA. Importantly, it is also a segmented genome that allows it to have large genetic diversity.

Is DNA a single strand of nucleotides?
No, DNA, from difference with the RNA, is a double strand of nucleotides. DNA, double strand (hence the double helix nickname). RNA, single strand.
What is the genus and species category for influenza?
it is a negative single strand RNA virus of family orthomyxoviridae having four group: influenza A, influenza B, influenza C, and thogoto virus. containing 7to 8 segments of linear rna with a genome length b/w 12,000 to 15,000.
Is RNA a double strand of nucleic acid?
Yes it is.
What distinguishes RNA from DNA?
First of all, RNA has ribose, which is what the R stands for. DNA had deoxyribose, which is what the D stands for. Also, RNA is a single strand, while DNA id double- stranded and has a double helix shape. Thirdly, DNA has Thymine, while RNA has Uracil.
What is a single strand of RNA that has no capsid?
A single stranded RNA virus (ssRNA) is simply a virus containing a single strand of RNA genome, here are some of the families: Picornavirus, Coronavirus, Flavivirus and Togavirus. Note: These are classes/families of viruses
Is DNA a single strand of nucleotides?
No, DNA, from difference with the RNA, is a double strand of nucleotides. DNA, double strand (hence the double helix nickname). RNA, single strand.
Is DNA or RNA triple stranded?
DNA is generally double stranded and RNA is single stranded.
A major difference in RNA as compared to DNA is?
RNA can move and DNA cant. DNA has a double helix strand and RNA is a single strand.
Is the RNA made up of double strand of nucleotides?
NO, RNA is almost always single stranded. The only exception is in certain viruses that contain double-stranded RNA.
What is the genus and species category for influenza?
it is a negative single strand RNA virus of family orthomyxoviridae having four group: influenza A, influenza B, influenza C, and thogoto virus. containing 7to 8 segments of linear rna with a genome length b/w 12,000 to 15,000.
What is a single strand of rna that loops back on itself?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a single strand that loops back on itself.
Is RNA a single strand?
yes
What must happen to a DNA molecule before RNA ploymerase can make RNA?
The double strand helix is opened by enzymes called helicase and this allow the RNA polymerase to copy the DNA strand. The double strand helix is opened by enzymes called helicase and this allow the RNA polymerase to copy the DNA strand.
Is RNA a single strand nucleic acid?
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.
Is RNA a double strand of nucleic acid?
Yes it is.
The strand of DNA that is not transcribed is called the strand.?
RNA polymerase runs in one direction and is making up a single strand of mRNA. So, the strand not copied in the antiparallel double stranded DNA is called the nonsense strand. ( sense strand is copied )
