Understand the structure of nucleic acids: DNA and RNA are composed of nucleotides, each containing a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
Identify the nitrogenous bases in DNA: DNA contains adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
Identify the nitrogenous bases in RNA: RNA contains adenine (A), uracil (U), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
Recognize the key difference between DNA and RNA: In RNA, uracil (U) replaces thymine (T) as the complementary base to adenine (A).
Conclude that in an RNA strand, uracil (U) is the nitrogenous base that replaces thymine (T) found in DNA.
