Is trna double stranded or single stranded?
tRNA, or transfer RNA, is a single stranded molecule. The only double stranded RNA is dsRNA, or double stranded RNA. They are typically found in viruses.
Is DNA or RNA triple stranded?
DNA is generally double stranded and RNA is single stranded.
Is influenza single strand or double strand RNA?
It is single stranded RNA. Importantly, it is also a segmented genome that allows it to have large genetic diversity.
Is yellow fever virus DNA or RNA?
Yellow fever is a single stranded RNA virus (ssRNA)
Is astrovirus single or double stranded?
single stranded RNA (positive sense)
What is a description of the structure of DNA and RNA?
DNA is double stranded whereas RNA is single stranded . They are different in their functioning as well .
RNA is single stranded?
mRNA, or messenger RNA is single stranded, and so are transfer RNA, snRNA, hnRNA, and ribosomal RNA. The exception are some viral RNA's, that can be double stranded. Remember that despite having Uracil instead of Thymine, RNA can base pair anyway, just like in the case of the beforementioned RNA-viruses.
How many strands are in a RNA?
One as RNA is single stranded
Is genetic material single stranded or double stranded rna?
If the genetic material is RNA, it will usually be single stranded. Only viruses contain double stranded RNA. The main genetic material in eukaryotic cells (eg. animal cells) is DNA. Single stranded RNA copies of this (known as mRNA) are made in order for proteins to be synthesized.
Single stranded nucleic acid is?
RNA
What are the characteristics of DNA and RNA?
DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded. DNA uses thymine but RNA uses uracil.
Number of nucleotide strands in RNA?
DNA is usually double stranded and RNA is usually single stranded but there are exections to both cases
