Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) and RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) are both types of nucleic acids. Here’s a brief overview of each:

- **DNA**:
- Structure: Double-stranded helix.
- Function: Contains the genetic blueprint for the development and functioning of living organisms.
- Base Pairing: Uses adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).

- **RNA**:
- Structure: Generally single-stranded.
- Function: Plays various roles in coding, decoding, regulation, and expression of genes. Types include messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).
- Base Pairing: Uses adenine (A), uracil (U), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).

In summary, both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids.
