False. Uracil is a nitrogen base found in RNA molecules, not DNA. In DNA, thymine is the equivalent nitrogen base to uracil.


What does RNA usually contain besides thymine?

RNA does not contain the nitrogen base thymine. There are four nitrogen bases in RNA; adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.


What base is found exclusively in RNA?

RNA does not contain deoyribose, as DNA does, but instead uses ribose.


What base is missing on RNA and what other base replaces it?

No nitrogen base is missing. You may be referring to the fact that DNA contains the nitrogen base thymine, while RNA contains the nitrogen base uracil. They both contain adenine, cytosine, and guanine.
