<span> Both of them are nucleic acids. And that is about the only similarity they share. ;)
One of the major differences between the two is that DNA is double-stranded and RNA is single stranded. Also, DNA contains the nucleotide T whereas RNA contains U.
RNA copies the genetic information found within DNA and uses it to assemble protein, as well as ribosomes. Hence, RNA is a crucial part in protein synthesis, being directly involved in it, whereas DNA is indirectly involved in this process.
There are three types of RNA: mRNA (messenger RNA), rRNA (ribosomal RNA) and tRNA (transfer RNA). As far as DNA is concerned, there is only one type of DNA. ;) Another difference.
Also, in some viruses the RNA replaces the DNA but the DNA will never replace the RNA. Yet another difference. </span>

In a red blood cell, the control center is the nucleus. A mitochondria is not a nucleus. It is another organelle that produces energy for the cell.
Ligaments connect one bone to another bone. Therefore, they allow a joint to form, because joints are where two or more bones connect.
Take your knee joint for instance (***see attached pic***). The knee joint is formed by the connection of the femur (your thigh bone), the tibia (your shin bone), and the fibula (the other long bone in your lower leg). In order for all of these bones to connect there are many ligaments in the knee joint that keep the bones connected and in place. A well known example of one of these ligaments in the knee joint is the ACL (anterior crucate ligament), which is commonly torn in sports, namely football. Most people have heard of this ligament because it receives a lot of media attention since tearing it can greatly alter or even end professional athletes' careers.
