In protein formation, mRNA carries codes from the DNA in the nucleus to the sites of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm (the ribosomes). Ribosomes are composed of rRNA and protein; they can "read" the code carried by the mRNA. A sequence of three nitrogenous bases in mRNA specifies incorporation of an amino acid; tRNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes, where they are linked into proteins.
Yes, both DNA and RNA contain ribose in their molecular structure.
RNA is single-stranded, while DNA is double-stranded. RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains deoxyribose. RNA has the base uracil instead of thymine found in DNA.
RNA and DNA both contain genetic information, but their structures differ in a few key ways. One major difference is that RNA contains ribose sugar, while DNA contains deoxyribose sugar. Additionally, RNA is typically single-stranded, while DNA is double-stranded. These structural differences contribute to the unique functions of RNA, such as protein synthesis and gene regulation, compared to DNA's role in storing genetic information.
No, RNA does not have a double helix structure like DNA.
No, RNA does not have deoxyribose in its structure. RNA contains ribose sugar instead of deoxyribose, which is found in DNA.
RNA uses uracil instead of thyminelike DNA does.

RNA
DNA is double stranded whereas RNA is single stranded . They are different in their functioning as well .
The base "uracil" is not found in the structure of DNA, but rather in RNA, as uracil replaces thymine in RNA.
No, RNA does not have deoxyribose in its structure. RNA contains ribose sugar instead of deoxyribose, which is found in DNA.
RNA is a single-stranded molecule, while DNA is double-stranded. RNA is typically shorter and more flexible than DNA. In terms of function, RNA is involved in protein synthesis and gene regulation, while DNA stores genetic information.
RNA and DNA differ in these ways: (1) DNA has deoxyribose sugar, and RNA has ribose sugar. (2) DNA is made up of these four bases: adenine & guanine, cytosine & thymine; RNA is made up of adenine & guanine, cytosine & URACIL, the difference being that in RNA, uracil replaces thymine. (3) DNA is a double stranded molecule, and RNA is a single stranded molecule. (And for an optional 4)RNA can travel in and out of the nucleas of the cell. The DNA is stuck in the nucleas.
No... DNA is much longer than RNA.
