The true statement is:

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

The other statements are incorrect. Translation is the process that converts mRNA into proteins, while transcription is the process that synthesizes mRNA from DNA. DNA is typically double-stranded, whereas RNA is usually single-stranded. Thymine is present only in DNA, but cytosine is present in both DNA and RNA.
