Well, RNA consist of aminoacids. An aminoacid is built up of three bases, which is a micture of a nucleoside (organic molecule), phosphatgroup and the base (A,T,G,C). This package is also called nucleic acid.
So RNA is built up the same way as DNA, but it's just a helix and not a duople-helix (DNA) and has got the base U instead of the base T. You can see that RNA is a molecule because its built up of molecules.
Thymine is a nucleotide that occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules. In RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil.
Yes, transcription requires RNA polymerase for the synthesis of RNA molecules.
Uracil replaces thymine in RNA molecules.
The type of sugar used in RNA molecules is ribose.
RNA molecules have many functions, but in the majority of cells most RNA molecules are involved in just one job- protein synthesis.
Mi RNA
The three types of RNA include; messenger RNA (mRNA), RNA polymerase, and transfer RNA (tRNA).
A chromosome contains many genes that are transcribed into different RNA molecules. These RNA molecules can serve as templates for protein synthesis or have other functions in the cell.
The RNA molecules that attach the amino acid to the protein chain are usually soluble.
transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. These molecules have a specific sequence that matches with the codons on messenger RNA (mRNA) to ensure the correct amino acid is added during protein synthesis.
Yes
Adenine occurs in both RNA and DNA molecules. It is uracil that replaces thymine in the RNA molecule.
