DNA vs RNA

This educational overview explores the fundamental differences between DNA and RNA, focusing on their structures and functions. DNA, composed of deoxyribose sugars, stores genetic information, while RNA, featuring ribose sugars, plays critical roles in protein synthesis. Key RNA types include mRNA (messenger RNA), which transports instructions from DNA to ribosomes; tRNA (transfer RNA), which brings the correct amino acids during synthesis; and rRNA (ribosomal RNA), which is essential for assembling amino acids into proteins. Discover how these molecules work together to sustain life.

  3. Functions • ARN • mARN: “Messenger” ARN. Carries instructions from DNA to the site of protein synthesis. • tARN: “transfer” ARN. Delivers the amino aids in the correct order during protein synthesis. • rRNA: “Ribosomal” ARN. DNA • Store genetic information
