The percentage of uracil in a nucleic acid sample can vary depending on the specific RNA molecule being analyzed. For example, in certain types of RNA, uracil may comprise a significant proportion, often around 20-30% of the total nucleotides. To determine the exact percentage, you would need to analyze the specific RNA sequence and count the number of uracil nucleotides relative to the total number of nucleotides present.

If the DNA analysis of a gene shows 20 adenine bases what would be the percentage of uracil?

as adenine is complementary to thymine,the percentage of thymine is 20% out of 100% 40%is adenine and thymine(20%A +20%T)the rest is 60% cytosine is complementary to guanine so the percentage of cytosine and guanine is 30%and 30%


Would you find uracil in DNA?

No, you will only find Uracil in RNA.


What does adenine match with?

In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine. In RNA, adenine pairs with uracil.


What base in RNA pairs what adenine?

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


What base in RNA pair with adenine?

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


What is the base of RNA in place of thymine which bonds with adenine?

The nitrogen base uracil takes the place of thymine in RNA. So in RNA, uracil pairs with adenine.


What nucleotide replaces thymine?

Uracil replaces Thymine in DNA. Adenine and Thymine go together while Cytosine and Guanine go with each other in DNA. But, in RNA, Thymine is replaces with Uracil. So not Adenine and Uracil go together, while Cytosine and Guanine pair up.


Is it DNA if a nucleic acid contains uracil?

no, that would be rna


What nitrogenous base is present in RNA but not DNA?

That would be the base 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 is in RNA but not in DNA?

Uracil
