Recall that RNA (ribonucleic acid) is composed of four nitrogenous bases, which are the building blocks of its nucleotide structure.
Identify the purine bases in RNA: Adenine (A) and Guanine (G). These are larger, double-ring structures.
Identify the pyrimidine bases in RNA: Cytosine (C) and Uracil (U). Note that Uracil replaces Thymine, which is found in DNA instead.
Understand that Thymine (T) is present in DNA but not in RNA; in RNA, Uracil takes its place and pairs with Adenine during base pairing.
Therefore, the correct set of nitrogenous bases in RNA is Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, and Guanine.
