Summary of Differences Between DNA and RNA<span>DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. The only difference between ribose and deoxyribose is that ribose has one more -OH group than deoxyribose, which has -H attached to the second (2') carbon in the ring.DNA is a double stranded molecule while RNA is a single stranded molecule.DNA is stable under alkaline conditions while RNA is not stable.<span>DNA and RNA perform different functions in humans. DNA is responsible for storing and transferring genetic information while RNA directly codes for amino acids and as acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes to make proteins.</span></span>
