Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Uracil.

Answer 1

Answer:

uracil

Explanation:

Answer 2

Uracil is the odd one out among the given set.

Explanation:

Uracil is the odd one out among the given set.

• The nucleotides present in DNA are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine and Cytosine.
• The nucleotides present in RNA are Adenine, Uracil, Guanine and Cytosine.

• Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) are longs strands containing nucleobases (Adenine, Thymine, Uracil, Guanine and Cytosine.), phosphate group and a deoxyribose sugar in DNA and a ribose sugar in the case of RNA.
• Nucleoside is the combination of the nucleobase with either a deoxyribose sugar or ribose sugar molecule. Nucleotide is a nucleoside with a phosphate group.

• The nucleotides present in a DNA is Uracil instead of Guanine.

• The nucleobases are bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. Adenine is bound to Thymine by double hydrogen bonds and Guanine to Cytosine by triple hydrogen bonds.
