What is RNA? How does the structure of RNA differ from that of DNA? In all DNA, regardless of source, length, etc. A=T and G=C. Why, in RNA, does A≠U and G≠C? Where in the cell does DNA transcription occur? What are the key stages of the process?
Hello, I am studying for an exam. I am having to understand this part of the chapter. I am working on TRANSCRIPTION & TRANSLATION. I need help answering 19-29? Do I only need 5 to 7 sentences? This is not work graded.

Why is the RNA code for the amino acids called a ‘triplet code’?
What is the meaning of the word ‘codon’? How many different codons are there? What type of molecule contains codons?
Distinguish between tRNA, rRNA, and mRNA in terms of their roles in translation.
What is the meaning of the word ‘anticodon’? What type of molecule contains anticodons? How do codons and anticodons interact during translation?
What is RNA?
RNA is abbreviated as Ribonucleic acid, which is a complex molecule with high molecular weight and involves protein synthesis.
It carries genetic codes in some viruses.
How it structure of RNA differs from DNA?
RNA structure differs from DNA by structure and function. RNA is single-stranded where DNA is double-stranded.
RNA has nucleobase uracil while DNA has thymine.
