Specific radioactive identification of ribosomal RNA can be achieved by using C14 labelled

  • Guanine

  • Uracil

  • thymine

  • Cytocine

Answer

B.

Uracil

The pyrimidine, thymine and the sugar deoxyribose are incorporated into DNA, not RNA. Adenine, Cytosine and Guanine are incorporated into DNA, not RNA. Adenine, cytosine and guanine are incorporated into both RNA and DNA. Ribose sugar and the base uracil are specific to all the forms of RNA.
