in humans there is one strand of RNA, hence the name single-stranded RNA.

However, in some viruses (such as HIV), there are double-stranded RNA made by the enzyme transcriptase.

Is protein made out of RNA strands?

No, protein is not made out of RNA strands. Proteins are composed of amino acids, while RNA is a nucleic acid that plays a role in protein synthesis. RNA is involved in translating the genetic information encoded in DNA into the sequence of amino acids that make up proteins.


Where are strands of RNA made?

in eukaryotes, RNA is synthetised in the nucleus from DNA, using RNA-polymerase. in prokaryotes, RNA is synthetised in the cytoplasm (DNA has no nucleus), using RNA-polymerase as well.
