  • It is single stranded whereas DNA is a double stranded.
  • Sugar phosphate RNA is ribose and DNA is deoxyribose. Hydroxyl group of ribose has pentose ring and also made lability. But deoxyribose does not.
  • RNA is uracil and DNA is thymine of adenine which is the complementary base.  

RNA

  • It is known as Ribonucleic acid.
  • It is the polymeric molecule, it is used in many kinds of biological terms which is decoding, regulations and coding.

DNA

  • It is a deoxyribonucleic acid.
  • Which molecule has long chain and contains special genetic code.
  • It is chemically made up of deoxyribonucleic acid.
