DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid w/c are
double stranded.

RNA stands for ribonucleic acid w/c are single

stranded.

DNA located at the nucleus while RNA located

at the cytoplasm.

DNA and RNA consist of nitrogenous bases.

IMPORTANCE
DNA responsible for storing and transferring
genetic information.

RNA directly codes for amino

acids and acts as messenger
between DNA and ribosomes
to make proteins.
TYPES OF RNA
MESSENGER RNA (mRNA)
Bring information from the DNA in the nucleus to
the protein manufacturing area, CYTOPLASM.

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)

hold tightly into the mRNA using its information to assemble the
amino acids in correct order.
Transfer RNA (tRNA)
supplies amino acids to the ribosome to be
assembled as protein
