The U stands for uracil. But remember, that uracil is only in RNA. In DNA the U is replaced with T (thymine).

DNA A goes with what mRNA?

A (adenine) goes with U (uracil) in RNA.


RNA is to U as DNA is to?

In RNA, the nitrogenous base of U (Uracil) is in place of T (Thymine) in DNA.


When do you use u in a DNA sequence?

The letter "u" is used in DNA sequences to represent deoxyuridine, which is a base found in RNA but not in DNA. In RNA sequences, "u" stands for uracil instead of thymine, which is found in DNA sequences.


If the sequence of bases in a nucleic acid were AUCGA is it a strand of DNA?

No, because "U," or Uracil, is found in RNA and not DNA.

No DNA sequence wont have U (uracil), so it is an RNA sequence!

How are the bases in RNA paired with the bases in DNA?

In RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C), similar to DNA. However, uracil (U) replaces thymine (T) as the complementary base for adenine (A) in RNA.


How is complementary base pairing different when pairing DNA to DNA than DNA to mRNA?

When pairing DNA to DNA - A binds to T and C binds to G. However, in RNA, the T is replaced with U. Therefore when DNA pairs with mRNA - A binds to U, C binds to G and T binds to A.


What are the 5 nucleotides that make up DNA and rna?

adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T) are the four nitrogen bases of DNA. In RNA, instead of Thymine (T), it would Uracil(U). So when you transcript a DNA into an RNA, T would be U.


What are the base pairings for DNA and RNA?

DNA has A-T and C-G while RNA has A-U and C-G
