Why there are no hydrogen bonds present in RNA?

Hydrogen bonds are indeed present in RNA, particularly between complementary bases in the double-stranded regions of RNA molecules, such as between adenine and uracil (or thymine) and between guanine and cytosine. These hydrogen bonds are essential for maintaining the structure and stability of RNA molecules.

Structure of DNA molecules?

DNA is made up of many nucleotides. These are a sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous bases. The two strands form a double helix (a spiral) with the nitrogenous bases in the middle, forming H-bonds with each other.


What are thymine and adenine?

Thymine and adenine are two of the four nucleotide bases that make up DNA molecules. Adenine pairs with thymine through hydrogen bonding in DNA double helix structures. These bases are essential for encoding genetic information in living organisms.


What places do you find hydrogen bonds?

Hydrogen bonds are commonly found in molecules containing hydrogen atoms bonded to highly electronegative atoms such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine. Water molecules, DNA double helix, and protein structures are notable examples where hydrogen bonds play a crucial role in stabilizing the structure and properties of these molecules.


According to the rules of complementary base pairing a nucleotide containing the base cytosine would pair with a nucleotide containing the base of?
