DNA is a doubled stranded structure, while RNA is a single stranded structure. RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose. RNA can have 4 nucleotides: cytosine, guanine, uracil, and adenine. DNA can have all these nucleotides except for uracil, which is replaced by thymine

∙ 12y agoDNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid formed from a repetition of simple building blocks called nucleotides. The nucleotides consist of phosphate (PO4), sugar (deoxyribose), and a base that is either adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), or cytosine (C). In a DNA molecule, this basic unit is repeated in a double helix structure made from two chains of nucleotides linked between the bases. The links are either between A and T or between G and C. The structure of the bases does not allow other kinds of links. The famous double helix structure resembles a twisted ladder. The 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine was awarded to James Watson (b. 1928), Francis Crick (b. 1916), and Maurice Wilkins (b. 1916) for determining the molecular structure of DNA.

What is the molecule Composition of Nuclear membrane?
dna
What can you say about how proteins are affected by your DNA composition?
protein affected by our DNA because of the gravity of the earth
How is the base composition of the DNA of an organism measured?
by sequencing its genome
Do the two DNA double helics following DNA replication have the same or different composition?
They should be identical to the original DNA that underwent replication.
What determines the enzyme's function?
Its composition and physical structure - this is determined by the DNA/RNA that coded for it.
What is the molecule Composition of Nuclear membrane?
dna
What term describes genetic composition?
DNA?
Do the two DNA double helices following DNA replication have the same or different composition?
No, because in DNA replication, DNA is split into two forms causing it to produce two different levels of composition.
What is Chargaff known for?
In 1950, Erwin Chargaff analysed the base composition of DNA composition in a number of organisms. He reported that DNA composition varies from one species to another so allowing for the ascertaining of differential.

What is the composition of nucleic acid-DNA?
The composition of the nucleic acid-DNA includes polynucleotides which are composed of guanine, adenine, thymine, cytosine, a phosphate group, and deoxyribose (a monosaccharide sugar).
