It's hard to know what you're actually asking here, so I'm going to answer the question as it appears...
DNA is a chemical molecule. No portion of it is alive.

The structure of RNA differs from DNA in that?
the backbone of RNA contains ribose.
What are two ways in which RNA structure differs from DNA structure?
Chemically RNA and DNA only differ by a single oxygen atom in each nucleotide. Specifically the sugar group in an RNA nucleotide is the sugar ribose, wherease the sugar group in DNA is deoxyribose. Wikipedia has a nice image showing this here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nucleotides_1.svg Structurally RNA and DNA are also different. DNA exists almost exclusively in a double stranded helix. RNA is typically thought of a single chain that has a far more chaotic structure with the RNA folding back onto itself creating small helical regions where possible. DNA nucleotides contain a different sugar than RNA nucleotides.
Is DNA or RNA triple stranded?
DNA is generally double stranded and RNA is single stranded.
Why each the following identify if it relates to DNA RNA both DNA and RNA or neither DNA nor RNA.?
For each the following, identify if it relates to DNA, RNA, both DNA and RNA, or neither DNA nor RNA.1. Is a polymer of nucleotides2. Contains adenine3. Is a special type of protein4. Contains thymine5. Contains uracil6. Has sugar-phosphate backbone7. Contains pentose sugar8. Contains Ribose9. Helix10. Double-strand molecule
Differences of RNA and DNA?
1. RNA have the base uracil whereas DNA have the base thymine. 2. RNA contain ribose sugar residues whereas DNA contain deoxyribose sugar residues. 3. RNA are single-stranded whereas DNA are double-stranded.
The structure of RNA differs from DNA in that?
the backbone of RNA contains ribose.
Unlike DNA RNA contains what?
RNA contains uracil, in which is not found in DNA
What Membrane covered structure that contains all materials nessary for life?
DNA & rna

How is a RNA different from a dna?
RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose. RNA contains the nitrogen base uracil, while DNA contains the nitrogen base thymine instead.
Is DNA or RNA triple stranded?
DNA is generally double stranded and RNA is single stranded.
Is human hair contains DNA RNA?
The follicle of a human hair contains both DNA and RNA. The shaft of a hair contains only mitochondrial DNA.

Is smallpox a DNA virus or an RNA virus?
Smallpox contains DNASmallpox is a virus, and therefore, can only have RNA or DNA. In the case of smallpox, it contains DNA. Viruses require a host to supply them with either RNA or DNA in order that more virus entities can be made.DNA
Differences of RNA and DNA?
1. RNA have the base uracil whereas DNA have the base thymine. 2. RNA contain ribose sugar residues whereas DNA contain deoxyribose sugar residues. 3. RNA are single-stranded whereas DNA are double-stranded.
What is a similar structure of DNA?
RNA
What is a description of the structure of DNA and RNA?
DNA is double stranded whereas RNA is single stranded . They are different in their functioning as well .
