Question

What are the differences between DNA nucleotides and RNA nucleotides?

Answer 1

DNA has thymine as a nucleotide, while RNA has uracil

Answer 2

DNA nucleotides:

DNA is present as genetic material in all organism except some virus. The nucleotide of DNA consists of the nitrogenous base. The bases of DNA are adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. The phosphate group and deoxyribose pentose sugar is present in the DNA nucleotides.

RNA nucleotides:

RNA is present as genetic material in some viruses only. The nucleotide of RNA consists of nitrogenous bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. The phosphate group and oxyribose pentose sugar is present in the nucleotide of RNA.
