Give 3 differences in RNA and DNA molecules.
The three differences in RNA and Dna molecules are-
DNA- it stands for deoxyribonucleic acid and contains a deoxyribose sugar molecule with no oxygen molecule present on 2' Carbon of sugar molecule.
• Dna is a double stranded molecule and base pairing occurs in Dna like, adenine binds with thymine and cytosine binds with guanine. These all are nitrogenous bases.
• Dna is more stable under alkaline conditions .
RNA- it stands for ribonucleic acid and contains a ribose sugar. Means a hydroxyl group is present on the 2'Carbon of the sugar molecule.
• Rna molecule is usually single stranded. If it is double stranded, then it do not have base thymine . Instead it has uracil.
• Rna is not such stable molecule under alkaline conditions.
