RNA and DNA are nucleic acids that differ in their structure and function: RNA is single-stranded and contains uracil instead of thymine, while DNA is double-stranded with complementary chains containing thymine. DNA contains the genetic instructions for all living things and is found in all cells, while there are three major classes of RNA that help express the information contained in DNA.

RNA vs. DNA
Characteristics:
• Single stranded
• 3 Major Classes: rRNA,
mRNA, tRNA
• Contains Uracil instead of
Thymine
• Contains Ribose
Characteristics:
• Double stranded
• The two chains are
complementary
• Contains Thymine, Adenine,
Guanine, and Cytosine
• Found in all living things
What is the connection between RNA
and DNA?
