DNA and RNA are structurally similar in some ways, but different in others. Identify whether each of the following statements applies to DNA, RNA, both or neither. 1. It can contain the pyrimidine cytosine.
2. It can contain the pyrimidine uracil.
3. This contains the sugar 2'-deoxyribose.
4. In terms of base composition, the %A = %C.
5. This contains the sugar ribose.
6. The bases are attached to sugars in a beta-N-glycosidic linkage.
7. It contains equal amounts of guanine and cytosine.
8. Sugars are connected with a 3'-5' phosphodiether link.

Explanation:

1. It can contain the pyrimidine cytosine - Both

2. It can contain the pyrimidine uracil - RNA

3. This contains the sugar 2'-deoxyribose - DNA

4. In terms of base composition, the %A = %C - Neither: %A = %T

5. This contains the sugar ribose - RNA

6. The bases are attached to sugars in a beta-N-glycosidic linkage - Both

7. It contains equal amounts of guanine and cytosine - Both

8. Sugars are connected with a 3'-5' phosphodiether link - Neither: they are connected by a 3'-5' phosphodiester link

videntify the dna change shown in the diagram and explain how that change can result in the increased genetic diversity often seen among siblings.identify the dna change shown in the diagram and explain how that change can result in the increased genetic diversity often seen among siblings.

hydrogen is a compound or a single element and a element is a pure substence that cannot be separated into simpler subtances

clorine is a compound its a chemical substance that forms when two or more different elements combine

so both hydrogen and clorine are compounds
