Question

What are three differences between rna and dna?

Answer 1

1. RNA has a ribose sugar instead of a deoxyribose sugar like DNA.
2. RNA is a single-stranded nucleic acid.
3. RNA nucleotides have a uracil base instead of thymine.

Answer 2

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.
