Answer
A
DNA is single-stranded; RNA is double-stranded.
B
DNA is double-stranded; RNA is single-stranded.
C
One contains genetic information; the other does not.
D
One is used to move genetic information around the cell; the other is not.

Explanation

DNA is usually double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded, so B is correct. Both DNA and RNA carry genetic information, making C incorrect. RNA can help move genetic instructions around the cell, such as messenger RNA carrying instructions from DNA to ribosomes, so D is correct.
