Some of the words that tie in with stranded, are isolated, abandoned. E.G, The poor disheveled boy was stranded on an antidelluvial island... The feeling of being stranded/lost. : )

What does it mean to have double stranded DNA and how does it differ from single stranded DNA?

Having double stranded DNA means that the DNA molecule consists of two strands that are twisted together in a double helix structure. This is the typical structure of DNA found in living organisms. Single stranded DNA, on the other hand, consists of just one strand of DNA. Double stranded DNA is more stable and less prone to errors during replication compared to single stranded DNA.


Is RNA found in a double stranded state in the cyoplasm?

It depends what you mean by double stranded. If you mean two separate RNA strands, perfectly complementary to one another and existing as a basepaired structure in the cytoplasm, then no. Double stranded RNA like that only occurs in some types of viruses (and cells infected by them... so I guess the cytoplasm of a cell infected by a double stranded virus might have a lot of this kind of double stranded RNA). However, if you mean double stranded in the sense of a single RNA molecule folding back on itself and basepairing with itself - forming stem loops and more complicated structures - that kind of RNA double-strandedness is extremely common. All tRNA's and rRNA's for example exhibit this kind of double-strandedness. Nucleic acids are unstable in single stranded states and will spontaneously fold back on themselves if there is no other strand to basepair with. Nucleic acids are inherently unstable in a single stranded state. Thus,


Is RNA always single stranded?
