Uracil is not found in DNA, only RNA, and replaces thymine in RNA 
sveta [45]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is uracil.

Uracil is a nitrogen base that is found in the RNA and not in the DNA, which has thymine. The three other nitrogen bases are the same ( Adenine, Guanine and Cytosine).

Besides the difference in the nitrogen bases, the two molecules also differ in the sugar that builds the structure ( DNA has desoxyribose and RNA has ribose) and the DNA is a two stranded helix, whereas the RNA is a single stranded molecule.
