Difference between DNA replication and transcription?

1. Replication is the duplication of two-strands of DNA. Transcription is the formation of single, identical RNA from the two-stranded DNA. 2. There are different proteins involved in replication and transcription. 3. In replication, the end result is two daughter cells, while in transcription, the end result is a protein molecule. 4. In transcription, DNA serves as the template for RNA synthesis.


Why is RNA only synthesized from one strand of a double-stranded DNA helix?

Not sure but I'm going to make an educated guess, your DNA doesn't want to leave the nucleus so it stays protected, your RNA is a translator and messenger it already has the 1 strand that can cooperate with the DNA so it can copy it exactly and then translate it.

What are three major differences between the structures of DNA and RNA?

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.


What is the difference between a DNA molecule and RNA molecule?

There are some differences between DNA and RNA 1) RNA is usually single stranded whereas DNA is double stranded 2) DNA ( Deoxyribosenucleic acid) has one less oxygen atom than RNA (Ribosenucleic acid) 3) The nucleotides in DNA differ from an RNA strand as DNA contains a Thymine nucleotide and RNA contains an Uracil nucleotide.

Just 1 strand. DNA has 2.


How many strands is RNA made of?

RNA is typically made of a single strand, as opposed to DNA which is usually double-stranded. RNA contains nucleotides that are composed of a ribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, or uracil.


The RNA molecule is made up of how many strands?

RNA is typically single-stranded, meaning it consists of only one strand of nucleotides. This single strand of RNA is synthesized in the cell by copying the genetic information from DNA during transcription.

How does RNA differantiate from DNA if it is double strnded?

the following points differentiates double stranded RNA And DNA : 1. the RNA is loop structure at the end and not that independent strands of the DNA. this loop is calles R-loop, t includes a sequence if repeated poly A tail. 2. it contains poly a tail at the end but DNA doesn't.

How does the structure of RNA differ than DNA?

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.


How many polynucleotide strands do RNA have?
