Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following bases is NOT found in RNA?
  • Step 1: Understand that RNA and DNA are both types of nucleic acids.
  • Step 2: Know that nucleic acids are made up of building blocks called bases.
  • Step 3: Identify the four bases found in DNA: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
  • Step 4: Identify the four bases found in RNA: adenine (A), uracil (U), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
  • Step 5: Compare the bases in RNA and DNA to find the one that is not present in RNA.
  • Step 6: Conclude that thymine (T) is the base that is NOT found in RNA.
