Use information from the lesson and article (Transcription and Translation on pages 3 and 4, respectively) to answer the question. Which statements differentiate DNA and RNA? Select three options.DNA is a double helix, and RNA is a single strand.DNA moves in and out of the nucleus, and RNA stays in the nucleusDNA is involved only in transcription, and RNA is involved in both transcription and translation.DNA is involved in both transcription and translation, and RNA is involved only in translation.DNA does not have uracil as a nitrogen base, but RNA does have uracil as a nitrogen base.
Answer
A
DNA is a double helix, and RNA is a single strand.
B
DNA moves in and out of the nucleus, and RNA stays in the nucleus
C
DNA is involved only in transcription, and RNA is involved in both transcription and translation.
D
DNA is involved in both transcription and translation, and RNA is involved only in translation.
E
DNA does not have uracil as a nitrogen base, but RNA does have uracil as a nitrogen base.
Explanation
DNA is usually a double helix, while RNA is usually a single strand, so A is correct. DNA serves as the template during transcription but is not directly involved in translation; RNA is made during transcription and helps carry out translation, making C correct. DNA uses the bases A, T, C, and G, while RNA uses U instead of T, so E is correct.
