What´s the difference between RNA and DNA?

Answer 1

The base sugars are different. (Ribose for RNA and deoxyribose for DNA)

DNA is usually double stranded while RNA is usually single stranded.

Thymine (a nucleotide) is almost never found in RNA, in it's place is uracil, which is almost never found in DNA.

Also, RNA is less stable than DNA and RNA also can act as a catalyst.

Answer 2

they contain different nucleotides and have different functions in the body. RNA constist of A, U, C, G while DNA A, T, C, G. RNA helps with duplication, whle DNA is what is in the nucleus and contains all the codes needed to perform functions....Basically

Answer 3

RNA polynucleotides contain ribose sugars and predominantly uracil unlike deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), which contains deoxyribose and predominantly thymine.
