Question

DNA&RNA Different between?​

Answer 1

Answer:

${\tt{\red{\underline{\underline{\huge{❣Answer:}}}}}}$

• ❣DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. The only difference between ribose and deoxyribose is that ribose has one more -OH group than deoxyribose, which has -H attached to the second (2') carbon in the ring.

• ❣DNA is a double-stranded molecule, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule.

• ❣DNA is stable under alkaline conditions, while RNA is not stable.

• ❣DNA and RNA perform different functions in humans. DNA is responsible for storing and transferring genetic information, while RNA directly codes for amino acids and acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes to make proteins.

• ❣DNA and RNA base pairing is slightly different since DNA uses the bases adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine; RNA uses adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine. Uracil differs from thymine in that it lacks a methyl group on its ring.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are two differences that distinguish DNA from RNA.

Explanation:

1) RNA contains sugar ribose while DNA contains slightly different sugar deoxyribons .

2) RNA has the nucleobase uracil while DNA contains thymine.
