In RNA, there are four kinds of base: adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. There are no thymine bases. Therefore, there are no thymine and adenine base pairs. Addtional answer:
The complimentary base of adenine in RNA is uracil which is a unmenthylated form of thymine. When menthylation occurs it becomes thymine which is paired with adenine in DNA. Thymine can also be called 5-methyluracil because it becomes thymine when methylation of uracil occurs at the 5th carbon.

What nitrogen base is complementary to adenine?
Thymine nitrogen base is complementary to Adenine.
A nitrogen base in RNA that is complementary to thymine is?
Thymine is not present in RNA, only in DNA. The base pairs for RNA are adenine & uracil, and guanine & cytosine. Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA.
What nitrogen base can pair with adenine?
What nucleotide base in DNA is replaced by a base in RNA?
In DNA thymine is one of the nitrogen bases, but in RNA uracil replaces thymine still leaving four nitrogen bases
What is uracil in RNA?
a base containing nitrogen that is found in RNA (but not in DNA) and derived from pyrimidine; pairs with adenine
What nitrogen base is complementary to adenine?
Thymine nitrogen base is complementary to Adenine.
A nitrogen base in RNA that is complementary to thymine is?
Thymine is not present in RNA, only in DNA. The base pairs for RNA are adenine & uracil, and guanine & cytosine. Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA.
What nitrogen base is replaced with uracil in RNA?
Thymine
What nitrogen base can pair with adenine?
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.
Which nitrogen base replaces thymine in RNA?
Uracil
What nucleotide base in DNA is replaced by a base in RNA?
In DNA thymine is one of the nitrogen bases, but in RNA uracil replaces thymine still leaving four nitrogen bases
Which nitrogen base of DNA cahnges?
The nitrogen base thymine in DNA is replaced by the nitrogen base uracil in RNA.
What nitrogen base replaced thymine in rna?
uracil (U)
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.
What is uracil in RNA?
a base containing nitrogen that is found in RNA (but not in DNA) and derived from pyrimidine; pairs with adenine
What is the nitrogen base in RNA that DNA doesn't have?
4 NITROGEN BASIS OF DNA:ADENINE GUANINECYTOSINETHYMINEIN RNA, Thymine changes to Uracil.
