Generally the DNA molecule is double stranded to RNA's single strand. The RNA molecule uses uracil as a base while the DNA molecule uses thymine. RNA has catabolic properties that allow it to act in things such a ribosomes and tRNA. DNA is just a carrier of the genetic information.

Which of the nucleotides occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules?
Thymine
How does DNA differ structurally from RNA?
The DNA and RNA differs in three aspects. Their difference are: RNA has single strand nucleic acid; RNA sugar is ribose while DNA has deoxyribose; and the nucleotides of RNA is uracil while the DNA has thymine.
Is RNA a disposable copy of DNA?
True. RNA is made from the DNA template and when it is no longer needed, it is broken down. However, if the DNA is disturbed, major problems can occur. What statement is true about RNA? One of the bases from DNA is replaced by uracil
What molecules are present in cells that might interfere with DNA extraction?
Proteins, RNA, lipids
Molecules responsible for hereditary and variation of organisms?
DNA is responsible in most organisms, but RNA is responsible for heredity and variation of a lot of viruses.
Why DNA molecules differ from the RNA molecules?
Generally the DNA molecule is double stranded to RNA's single strand. The RNA molecule uses uracil as a base while the DNA molecule uses thymine. RNA has catabolic properties that allow it to act in things such a ribosomes and tRNA. DNA is just a carrier of the genetic information.
Does adenine nuleotide occur in DNA but not in RNA molecules?
Adenine occurs in both RNA and DNA molecules. It is uracil that replaces thymine in the RNA molecule.
Why do DNA molecules differ from the RNA molecule?
RNA is ribonucleic acid, which is practically the zipped portion of DNA which is Deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA 'zips' into two halfs and the zipped half is called the RNA. While the DNA is the main component of genetic information RNA is like a coder that is sent to the ribosome to build on and collect protiens.
How does base pairing differ RNA and DNA?
RNA uses uracil instead of thyminelike DNA does.
Which molecules is typically found in DNA but not RNA?
Thymine is found in DNA but not in RNA. Uracil replaces thymine in RNA. In other words: DNA has thymine. RNA has uracil.
Which of the nucleotides occurs in DNA molecules but not in RNA molecules?
Thymine
Are replicators DNA or RNA?
DNA are replicator molecules. DNA molecules are able to male copies of themselves in a process called DNA replication. RNA molecules however, are synthesized using a DNA template through a process called transcription
Which base is found in DNA nucleotides but not RNA molecules?
DNA contains thymine, but RNA has uracil in its place.
Which organic molecules contain genetic information in the form if DNA or RNA?
All living things have DNA or rna
What other molecules are needed for DNA to make proteins?
In addition to DNA, messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA are needed to make proteins.
What forms part of the important life sustaining molecules such as DNA and RNA?
Phosphorus is essential to living organisms because it forms a part of vital molecules such as DNA and RNA.
What is a difference between rna and dna molecules?
One of the bases of RNA is uracil while one of the bases of DNA is thymine.
