The true statement is: DNA has the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA has the sugar ribose.
The other statements are incorrect. For example, transcription involves copying DNA to mRNA, while translation involves converting mRNA to proteins. DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is typically single-stranded. Thymine is only present in DNA, while uracil (not cytosine) is present in RNA.
