How many sugar does RNA have?
Each RNA nucleotide contains one ribose sugar molecule.
Is the sugar in DNA has one additional oxygen in it than in RNA?
No. It's the opposite. The sugar in RNA is ribose, and the sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. The deoxyribose molecule has one less oxygen atom than ribose.
What is the difference between a DNA molecule and RNA molecule?
There are some differences between DNA and RNA 1) RNA is usually single stranded whereas DNA is double stranded 2) DNA ( Deoxyribosenucleic acid) has one less oxygen atom than RNA (Ribosenucleic acid) 3) The nucleotides in DNA differ from an RNA strand as DNA contains a Thymine nucleotide and RNA contains an Uracil nucleotide.
Explain how RNA differs from DNA biochemically?
RNA is a single stranded molecule while DNA is a double stranded molecule. RNA contains the sugar ribose while DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose. The difference between ribose and deoxyribose is ribose has one more -OH group than deoxyribose, which has -H attached to the second carbon in the ring.
What is found in anucleotide of RNA?
A nucleotide of RNA contains a ribose sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogen bases: adenine, uracil, guanine, and cytosine.
How many sugar does RNA have?
Each RNA nucleotide contains one ribose sugar molecule.
What is the difference between DNA Molecule and RNA molecule?
A DNA molecule is made up of deoxyribose sugar while RNA is made up of ribose sugar. A DNA molecule is double stranded whilst a RNA molecule is single stranded. A DNA molecule only contains the bases; Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. However a RNA molecule contains the bases; Uracil, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. DNA is only found in the nucleus of a cell, while RNA is found in the cytoplasm.
What molecule is found in DNA but not in RNA?
The SUGAR found in DNA but not RNA is Codo.
What Specific sugar is found in an RNA molecule?
Ribose, hence the "R".
Name of sugar in RNA?
The pentose sugar in RNA is called RIBOSE
What molecule has phosphate. Sugar and base?
Both DNA and RNA have all three.
What molecule has phosphate sugar base?
Both DNA and RNA have all three.
Is the sugar in DNA has one additional oxygen in it than in RNA?
No. It's the opposite. The sugar in RNA is ribose, and the sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. The deoxyribose molecule has one less oxygen atom than ribose.
What is the name of a sugar found in DNA but not in RNA?
DNA has the deoxyribose sugar, while RNA has the ribose sugar.
What is the difference between a DNA molecule and RNA molecule?
There are some differences between DNA and RNA 1) RNA is usually single stranded whereas DNA is double stranded 2) DNA ( Deoxyribosenucleic acid) has one less oxygen atom than RNA (Ribosenucleic acid) 3) The nucleotides in DNA differ from an RNA strand as DNA contains a Thymine nucleotide and RNA contains an Uracil nucleotide.
Sugar on RNA?
The sugar that is part of a nucleotide is a 5-carbon atom sugar in its ring form. It will either be ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA. The "deoxy" simply means that the ribose molecule has lost an oxygen. That missing oxygen happens to be from the second carbon, so the more correct name for deoxyribose is 2-deoxyribose.
What sugar composes part of the ATP Molecule?
The sugar componant of ATP is known as Ribose. This sugar is the same one that makes up the sugar component of RNA.
