Options

  1. ADNA and RNA have identical structures and functions.
  2. BDNA is single-stranded, while RNA is double-stranded. DNA carries genetic information, while RNA is involved i
  3. CDNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded. DNA carries genetic information, while RNA is involved i
  4. DDNA and RNA have the same functions but differ in their chemical composition.

Correct answer

C. DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded. DNA carries genetic information, while RNA is involved i

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C) DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded. DNA carries genetic information, while RNA is involved in protein synthesis and other cellular functions.
