Rna in cells differs from dna in that ___________________. select one:
irinina [24]
Hello! 

RNA in cells differs from DNA in that it is single-stranded and can fold up into a variety of structures.

RNA is the abbreviation for RiboNucleic Acid. It is a biological molecule that fulfills an important role by copying the information stored in the DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) and transporting it to the different proteins by folding into different shapes. Its name come from a Ribose molecule that is present in this single-stranded molecule.  

Viruses don't have DNA, only RNA. They only replicate in the host's cells by copying their own RNA information. 

Have a nice day!

Explain what nuclear, or atomic, process most likely results in geothermal energy. Also state why this nuclear energy will last
ELEN [110]

Explanation:

Nuclear energy does not produce electricity on its own. The nuclear energy it produces is used to heat water . The hot water then turns to steam that is used to turn dynamo turbines. This is thermal energy turned to mechanical energy.  The dynamo turbines turn the mechanical energy into electric energy.

Nuclear energy lasts longer because the same volume as compared to fossil fuels produced a larger magnitude of energy, million of magnitudes larger. Therefore with the controlled release of this enormous energy, nuclear energy can last much longer than fossil fuels.
