The true statement is:

**DNA has the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA has the sugar ribose.**

The other statements are incorrect. Specifically, thymine is only present in DNA, but cytosine is found in both DNA and RNA. DNA is typically double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded. Additionally, transcription copies DNA to mRNA, while translation converts mRNA into proteins.
