use information from the lesson and article (transcription and translation on pages 3 and 4, respectively) to answer the question. which statements differentiate dna and rna? select three options. dna is a double helix, and rna is a single strand. dna moves in and out of the nucleus, and rna stays in the nucleus dna is involved only in transcription, and rna is involved in both transcription and translation. dna is involved in both transcription and translation, and rna is involved only in translation. dna does not have uracil as a nitrogen base, but rna does have uracil as a nitrogen base.
Answer
Brief Explanations:
- DNA has a double - helix structure while RNA is single - stranded. This is a fundamental structural difference.
- DNA stays in the nucleus and RNA can move in and out. The statement in the question about their location is incorrect.
- DNA is involved in transcription (synthesis of RNA from DNA template), and RNA is involved in both transcription (as the product) and translation (protein synthesis). The correct statements about their roles in these processes are considered.
- Uracil is a nitrogen - base unique to RNA, while DNA has thymine instead.
Answer:
A. DNA is a double helix, and RNA is a single strand. C. DNA is involved only in transcription, and RNA is involved in both transcription and translation. F. DNA does not have uracil as a nitrogen base, but RNA does have uracil as a nitrogen base.
