When RNA is hydrolysed, there is no relationship among the quantities of different bases obtained ? What does this fact suggest about the structure of RNA ?

Answer»

Solution :In DNA MOLECULE, there are four COMPLEMENTARY bases pairs (A, T) and (G, C) have double helix structure. DNA has two strands. On hydrolysis, the DNA produces equimolar of complementary bases, i.e., amount of adenine equal to thymine and that of guanine equal to cytosine. In RNA, there are also four bases, i.e., Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Uracil and there is no relationship between the QUANTITIES of four bases and therefore UNLIKE DNA, RNA has a single strand.
