What base is missing on RNA and what other base replaces it?

No nitrogen base is missing. You may be referring to the fact that DNA contains the nitrogen base thymine, while RNA contains the nitrogen base uracil. They both contain adenine, cytosine, and guanine.


Does RNA contain the nitrogen base uracil?

NO. RNA contains URACIL while in DNA it is THYMINE, the uracil replaces the thymine.


Which nitrogen base is missing in DNA?

Uracil is the nitrogen base that is missing in DNA. In DNA, thymine replaces uracil as one of the four nitrogen bases.


How is a RNA different from a dna?

RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose. RNA contains the nitrogen base uracil, while DNA contains the nitrogen base thymine instead.


What nitrogen base does RNA contain?

RNA contains four nitrogenous bases; Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil.


What base is found exclusively in RNA?

RNA does not contain deoyribose, as DNA does, but instead uses ribose.


What is the meaning of Uracil?

Uracil is a base in RNA which contains nitrogen. It comes from pyrimidine. It is often used in science, regularly in Bio-chemistry and can be paired with adenine.


True or false Only DNA molecules contain the nitrogen base called uracil?

False. Uracil is a nitrogen base found in RNA molecules, not DNA. In DNA, thymine is the equivalent nitrogen base to uracil.


What nitrogen base is complementary to adenine?

Thymine nitrogen base is complementary to Adenine.


Which nitrogen base of DNA cahnges?

The nitrogen base thymine in DNA is replaced by the nitrogen base uracil in RNA.


3 DNA does NOT contain the nitrogen base?

DNA does not contain uracil. RNA does!! DNA contains guanine binds with Thymine in DNA RNA contains guanine that binds with uracil DNA does not contain uracil. RNA does!! DNA contains guanine binds with Thymine in DNA RNA contains guanine that binds with uracil


What is a nitrogen base that is found only in RNA but not DNA?

The nitrogen containing base that is found only in RNA is uracil. It takes the place of thymine in DNA
