Both DNA and RNA are polymeric molecules, meaning they are formed from many repeating units, formed from a sugar-phosphate backbone and genetic bases. However the sugar in the DNA backbone is deoxyribose, while in RNA it is ribose, and while DNA and RNA both use Adenine (A), Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G) bases, DNA uses Thymine (T) which is replaced by Uracil (U) in RNA. Additionally, DNA is almost always double stranded, while RNA can be double or single stranded, depending on the organism the RNA is from.
Hope this helps!

"In DNA thymine pairs with adenine, but in RNA uracil pairs with adenine. Similarities: - DNA and RNA are made up of monomers called nucleotides. - DNA and RNA both have 3 nitrogenous bases: Adenine, Cytosine and Guanine."

Genetically modified organisms are those organisms in which certain gene is inserted to get the desired beneficial results.

Explanation:

A genetically modified organism is an organism or plant altered for beneficial traits which would not have been possible by the traditional mating process or recombination techniques.

Genetic engineering is the technique involved for the construction of gene of interest and inserting them in the host species for getting expressed.

Many fruitful results have come out like a tomato of long shelf life k/a flavr savr.

Apart from molecular techniques used for cloning, CRISPR is the recent innovation which had made it very simple.

The GMOs can solve the food problem of the world as Single-cell proteins and longer shelved life food.

Disease resistant plants can be formed for better yields.

Nutrition level of food can be increased.

Example of GMO are canola, corn, papaya, soy and many animals are also on the list.
