What does adenine pair with in RNA?

In RNA, adenine pairs with Uracil.


What are the nitrogenous bases for DNA and RNA?

Pyrimidines, which include cytosine, thymine and uracil.andPurines, which include adenine and guanine


Does dna and RNA have nitrogenous bases?

Both DNA and RNA have nitrogenous bases. The nitrogenous bases in DNA are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). The nitrogenous bases in RNA are adenine (A), uracil (U), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). In DNA, A and T pair together, as does C and G. In RNA, C and G also pair together, but A pairs with U because U replaces T in RNA.


What forms a base pair with thymine?

Adenine pairs with thymine.


If adenine makes up 30 percent of the bases in a DNA helix what percentage of the bases are cystosine?

There are four bases in the DNA double helix: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. An adenine in one strand always pairs with a thymine in the other strand. Similarly, a cytosine always pairs with a guanine. So the number of adenines always equals the number of thymines, and the number of cytosines always equals the number of thymines. The total number of bases must equal 100%. So if 30% of the bases are adenine, another 30% must be thymine because they always pair with each other. Thymine and adenine added together therefore make 60% of the bases. The remaining 40% must be cytosine plus guanine. If the number of cytosines must equal the number of guanines, the percentage of cytosines must be ....... well, you can work it out for yourself!

Which is one of the bases found in RNA?

One of the bases found in RNA is uracil. Uracil pairs with adenine in RNA, just like thymine pairs with adenine in DNA.


What bases in RNA pair with adenine?

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 as there are in DNA so adenine pairs with uracil.


Which base in RNA pairs with adeine?

Uracil. There are five bases in RNA/DNA. They are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil. In DNA: Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Guanine pairs with Cytosine In RNA: Adenine pairs with Uracil and Guanine pairs with Cytosine


What is the nitrogen bases in rna?

Nitrogen bases of RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.


What bases pairs with adenine in RNA?

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 as there are in DNA so adenine pairs with uracil.


What RNA pairs with adenine?

The phosphate base that pairs with Adenine in RNA is Uracil. In a DNA strand Adenine would pair with Thymine.


What base in RNA pairs with adenine-?

Uracil is the base in RNA that pairs with adenine.


What base pairs with Adenine in RNA?

Uracil. In normal DNA it would be Thymine, but in RNA Uracil becomes the base pair for Adenine.


Adenine is found in Rna but not in DNA?

No, adenine bonds with thymine in Dna, while adenine bonds with uracil in Rna [the pairs AT & AU].


What does adenine pair with in RNA?

In RNA, adenine pairs with Uracil.


Name the four nitrogen bases?

There are 4 nitrogenous bases found in DNA; Cytosine, Adenine, Guanine, and Thymine. Cytosine pairs with Guanine, and Thymine pairs with Adenine. *In RNA, Uracil replaces Thymine, therefore Adenine pairs with Uracil, in RNA.*


What are the nitrogen based pairs?

The nitrogen bases in DNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. They pair with each other as follows: adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine. The nitrogen bases in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil. They pair with each other as follows: adenine pairs with uracil, and cytosine pairs with guanine.
