Compare and contrast the structure and function of DNA and RNA.

Biology
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

DNA has a double- helix structure which means it has two strands. The DNA strands are made from sugar (Deoxyribonucleic), phosphates and nitrogenous bases. There are 4 nitrogenous bases, 2 purine and 2 pyrimidine. The 2 purine bases are Adenine and Guanine. The pyrimidine bases are Thymine and Cytosine. DNA gives our genes.

RNA is a single strand unlike DNA. The strands are made from sugar (ribonucleic), phosphate and the nitrogenous bases. There are 4 nitrogenous bases 2 purine and 2 pyrimidine. The 2 purine bases are Adenine and Guanine. However, the 2 pyrimidine bases are Uracil and Cytosine. The function of RNA is to contribute to releasing proteins based on our rRNA and tRNA and mRNA. This process is known as RNA and transcription.

In your own words, describe what information the visible DNA fingerprint provides for each DNA sample
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The visible DNA fingerprint can help extract DNA which, after analysis, can accurately identify the suspect or perpetrator of the crime.

Explanation:

DNA Fingerprinting:

  • DNA fingerprinting is a molecular analysis tool that can help identify a suspect in a crime through DNA extracted from fingerprints.
  • Specific patterns in the DNA, known as polymorphisms, can be identified through DNA fingerprinting.
  • The DNA fingerprinting process involves:
  1. Extraction and purification of the DNA from the fingerprint.
  2. PCR amplification to obtain high yield.
  3. Fragmentation of the DNA by use of restriction enzymes.
  4. Gel electrophoresis analysis of the fragmented DNA.
  5. Analysis of gel to compare the size of the bands.
