How does the structure of DNA differ from the structure of RNA?

Biology

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.

Why do we group artworks with similar characteristics into periods or styles?
fgiga [73]
We group artworks with similar characteristics into periods or styles because it is easiest to do it that way - this way we can find common characteristics in these literary/artistic eras, and name them. For example, the Renaissance had a distinct style, which differs greatly from that of Romanticism.

UCU-CGA-GCC-GUU-GGG-UGA how do I convert this into an amino acid using the codon chart, i've been on this forever
bulgar [2K]
So u get a codon chart it'll look like a circle with a bunch of letters. Then you use the letters u are given for every dash such as UCU and you go biggest to smallest letter until you hit an amino acid or stop then what you write down is that amino acid you hit. For an example, we'll use UCU. You go to the big letter U inside that big U will be a smaller C and inside that C will be a smaller U which leads to an amino acid or a stop codon. And you do this with every group of 3 letters. If one is missing it stops prematurely and if there is an extra when it may have a mutation. I hope that helped! If not there are YouTube videos out there that can help.
