What are two ways to classify viruses?

Viruses can be classified based on their structure (DNA or RNA, enveloped or non-enveloped) and their method of replication (lytic or lysogenic life cycles).


What are two types of nucleic acid found the cell?

Two types of nucleic acids found in cells are DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). DNA stores genetic information and is typically found in the cell nucleus, while RNA plays a role in protein synthesis and can be found in the nucleus and cytoplasm.


In what ways does DNA differ from RNA, and what are three key distinctions between the two molecules?

DNA and RNA are both nucleic acids, but they have key differences. One major distinction is that DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded. Another difference is that DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains ribose. Additionally, DNA uses the base thymine, while RNA uses uracil instead.


What statement describes DNA but not RNA?

DNA is different with some ways to RNA -It have two chains but RNA have one chains -ıt stored herditary material (genetic material ) and controled cell activities but RNA ' s function protein synthesis -DNA can make copy ofıtself but RNA cannot -DNA have deoxyribose sugar but RNA have ribose sugar


What are the two nucleic acids?

The two nucleic acids are DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). They are essential macromolecules that carry genetic information in living organisms. DNA is found in the cell nucleus and RNA is found both in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm.


Why does DNA make RNA?

DNA makes RNA so then the DNA can replicate itself. RNA is typically single stranded copy, in a sense, of the DNA and there are two types: mRNA and tRNA.


Why do DNA molecules differ from the RNA molecule?

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.


What two biomolecules can carry the genetic information for a virus?

The two biomolecules that can carry the genetic information for a virus are DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid). Viruses can have either DNA or RNA as their genetic material, which carries the instructions for the virus to replicate inside host cells.


Three ways RNA and DNA differ?

1. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose and the sugar in RNA is ribose. 2. DNA is a double strand and RNA is single strand. 3. DNA is in the nucleus and RNA travels around from nucleus to cytoplasm. or 1. RNA is generally single stranded 2. RNA contains Uracil in place of Thymine 3. The sugar in RNA is Ribose instead of Deoxribose


How many strands of RNA are transcribed from the two unzipped strands of DNA?

One strand of RNA is transcribed from each of the two unzipped strands of DNA during transcription. RNA polymerase synthesizes a complementary RNA strand to one of the DNA strands.


What are two good genetic materials?

I think the two types of genetic materials are the DNA & RNA. DNA is seen in humans mammals and almost all other organisms but RNA is seen in some viruses like TMV.


Which is longer a strand of RNA or a strand of DNA?

Normally DNA and RNA are the same length. However RNA has only one half of the two usually duplicate genetic strands of DNA
