Flashcards
DNA vs. RNA - Base Difference
DNA vs. RNA - Base Difference
DNA uses thymine (T) as a base, while RNA utilizes uracil (U) instead.
Where is DNA in Prokaryotes?
Where is DNA in Prokaryotes?
In prokaryotes, DNA is situated directly within the cytoplasm, not enclosed within a nucleus.
What is semiconservative replication?
What is semiconservative replication?
The process by which DNA replicates, creating two new DNA molecules each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.
