Dna and rna
DNA and RNA are both nucleic acids - chains of nucleotides. This is evident from their names (deoxyribonucleic acid - DNA, and ribonucleic acid - RNA).
RNA primase is used to synthesize short RNA primers that are needed for DNA replication by DNA polymerase. This RNA primer can be easily replaced by DNA once DNA polymerase starts synthesizing the new DNA strand. This is different from DNA primase which synthesizes RNA primers during the synthesis of Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand during DNA replication in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Two kinds of nucleic acids are:-RNA/ Ribonucleic Acid-DNA/ Deoxyribonucleic AcidAs there names, RNA contain the sugar ribose and DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose
If you are referring to the four nitrogen bases found in DNA and RNA, they are as follows: DNA - adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine; RNA - adenine, guanine, cytosine, uracil.
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
Nucleotides do not have DNA or RNA. DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides.
An uracil base is in RNA but not in DNA
RNA has the base uracil that DNA does not have.
Yes, DNA and RNA have different sugar . DNA contains deoxyribose sugar whereas RNA consists of ribose sugar, which are completely different from each other.
Comparing DNA and RNA, some key differences include: DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded; DNA contains deoxyribose sugar, RNA contains ribose sugar; DNA has thymine base, RNA has uracil base; DNA is found in the nucleus, RNA is found in the cytoplasm; DNA is stable, RNA is less stable; DNA is the genetic material, RNA is involved in protein synthesis. These are just a few of the many distinctions between DNA and RNA.
RNA contains uracil (U) base instead of thymine (T) base found in DNA. RNA bases are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and uracil (U), whereas DNA bases are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T).
