How does DNA differ from RNA with respect to (a) Sugar and (b) base residues?
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid
(RNA).In DNA molecules, the sugar moiety is β-D-2-deoxyribose whereas, in RNA molecule, it is β-D-ribose.
DNA contains four bases viz. adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T). RNA also contains four bases, the first three bases are same as in DNA but the fourth one is uracil (U).
