Question

What is the difference between dna and rna?

Answer 1

The answer is : DNA is a long polymer with deoxyriboses and phosphate backbone. Having  four different nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. RNA is a polymer with a ribose and phosphate backbone. Four different nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil. Hope this Helps! Good Luck!

Answer 2

Answer:

DNA:

Deoxyribonucleic acid acts as the genetic material of almost all the living organisms. The deoxyribose pentose sugar is present in its DNA structure. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. DNA is highly stable in nature and cannot acts as the catalyst.

RNA:

Ribonucleic acid acts as the genetic material in case of few viruses only. The oxyribose pentose sugar is present in RNA structure. The nitrogenous bases present in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. RNA is highly unstable in nature and acts as a catalyst.
