Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which structure is characteristic of RNA?
  • Step 1: Understand that RNA stands for ribonucleic acid.
  • Step 2: Know that RNA is made up of nucleotides, just like DNA.
  • Step 3: Recognize that DNA is usually double-stranded, forming a double helix.
  • Step 4: Identify that RNA is typically single-stranded, meaning it has only one strand.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the single-stranded structure is a key characteristic that distinguishes RNA from DNA.
