Which of the following best describes a structural difference between DNA and RNA?
A
DNA is usually single-stranded, while RNA is usually double-stranded.
B
RNA contains the base cytosine, while DNA does not.
C

검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the key structural components of DNA and RNA to compare them: sugar type, strand structure, and nitrogenous bases.
Recall that DNA contains deoxyribose sugar, which lacks one oxygen atom compared to ribose sugar found in RNA.
Understand that DNA is typically double-stranded forming a double helix, whereas RNA is usually single-stranded.
Review the nitrogenous bases: DNA contains adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine; RNA contains adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine (not thymine).
Use these distinctions to evaluate each statement and determine which one correctly describes a structural difference between DNA and RNA.
