Although they are almost identical, there are three major differences

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.

A recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of flour. Zoe
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Substitution

Explanation:

Given the information in the question substitution seems like the most appropriate answer. Zoe used 1 cup of slat rather than 1 cup of sugar, she substituted sugar for salt.

Insertion is wrong because Zoe did not add another ingredient, there is still only 2 ingredients.

Transition is wrong because, given the information, because the state(liquid or solid) of the ingredients has not changed. Zoe is still use dry ingredients per say.

And beneficial also seems to be wrong because we don't know if using salt instead was beneficial to the recipe or to Zoe.

Hope this helps (:
