What is one thing that DNA and RNA have that is the same?

Answer 1

The sugar backbone is the same, although the ribose on DNA has an OH attached at the 2' carbon. Also the bases A, G, and C are present in both. The only base difference is T in DNA and U in RNA.

From a more general point of view, these molecules are both nuclei acids and thus are informational molecules. DNA stores genetic information, RNA can act as the messenger RNA that takes the "message" of genes to the ribosome where they become proteins. Nucleic acids are found in all living cells.

Answer 2

RNA is just ribonucleic acid, which means it lacks the "deoxy" from the DNA, . Everything else is the same:
Both are made of adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. Both have sugars, phosphates and amino acids.

Answer 3

DNA n RNA have same cromosomes
so i think they r same in everything exept that DNA has two chains n RNA has one
i may be wrong

Answer 4

Neucleic Acid

Answer 5

Adenine, Cytosine, and Guanine.
Uracil, however, replaces Thymine in RNA.

Answer 6

1) they're both nucleic acids

2) 5 carbon sugar

3) they have 3 of the same nitrogenous bases

4) they both have phosphate groups

Answer 7

It depends where and in what manner you are looking at them.
Structurally, phosphate is the same in both.
Compositionally both have adenine, guanine, and cytosine
Property wise, both are acid.
Functionally, both are informational macromolecules.

Answer 8

pentose sugar
phosphate group
and A G and C nucleotides

Answer 9

the N and the A

Answer 10

They are all genetic materials.
