Although they are almost identical, there are three major differences

1.) RNA is single stranded while DNA has a double helix

2.) RNA has uracil while DNA has thymine

3.) RNA has a ribose base while DNA has a deoxyribose base

Structurally, DNA and RNA are nearly identical. As mentioned earlier, however, there are three fundamental differences that account for the very different functions of the two molecules. RNA has a ribose sugar instead of a deoxyribose sugar like DNA. RNA nucleotides have a uracil base instead of thymine.

Police officers have found human skeletal remains including a pelvis, and they ask your help in determining the individual's gen
emmainna [20.7K]

The feature that you need to use in examining and make a determination whether the skeletal remains in the pelvis is either male or female is by analyzing its size and construction. It is because males have larger pelvis bone and are robust elements compared to females who have smaller and are light in terms of construction.

Question Two: Genetic variation. As healthy as someone might be, genetic variation is required to balance the differences out. This is to prevent possible diseases that aren’t present but may be if it becomes dominant.

Question Three: Variation is a good thing for species because it allows multiple possibilities for an organism, allowing a higher chance of survival. The higher the diversity, the more likely it is for people to not die from the same genetic diseases. Similarly, in a classroom, diversity can allow people to have different ideas, opinions, and answers. This lets other learn from one another within the environment rather than just wasting time listening to something that one knows already.
