Chapter 13.1, Problem 1COQ

Summary Introduction

To draw:

The Nucleotide of DNA and RNA and highlighting the differences between them.

Introduction:

DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are the genetic materials of the cells. DNA is seen only in the nucleus whereas RNA is cytoplasm and the nucleus.

There are three major class of cellular RNA $\text{mRNA, rRNA and tRNA}\text{.}$ Messenger RNA transcribe the genetic code from DNA into a form that can be used to make proteins. Ribosomal RNA is present in the cytoplasm of a cell, where ribosomes are found. Transfer RNA transfers amino acids to the ribosome that further corresponds to each three-nucleotide codon of $\text{rRNA}$.

Summary Introduction

To describe:

The structural similarities between the DNA and RNA.
