HEREDITY

• RNA stands for Ribo Nucleic Acid
• RNA is single stranded unlike DNA which is double stranded
• RNA is composed of three types of component molecule, what are those?

  phosphate group, sugar (ribose), and the nucleotide bases
• the nitrogenous bases of RNA are:

  -Adenine (A)

  -Uracil (U)

  -Cytosine (C)

  -Guanine (G)
• DNA stands for Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid
• DNA is composed of three types of component molecule, what are those?

  the phosphate group, sugar (deoxyribose), and the nucleotide bases
• DNA's nitrogenous bases are:

  -Adenine (A)

  -Thymine (T)

  -Cytosine (C)

  -Guanine (G)
• if DNA can be found in the nucleus of a cell, where can RNA be found?


  cytoplasm
