& Rna?
METHODOLOGY

RNA DNA
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is
Ribonucleic acid (abbreviated
the hereditary material in
RNA) is a nucleic acid present
humans and almost all other
in all living cells that has
organisms. Nearly every cell in a
structural similarities to DNA
person's body has the same DNA.
Structure
of RNA
01 ADenine 03 Guanine
As a purine, adenine is Adenine and guanine are
comprised of two carbon purine bases. These are
rings: a pyrimidine ring structures composed of a
5-sided and 6-sided ring.
and an imidazole ring

02 cytosine 04 uracil
Cytosine is a pyrimidine Uracil is one of four
nucleobase with a nitrogenous bases
chemical formula of found in the RNA
C4H5N3O. P molecule: uracil and
cytosine (derived from
pyrimidine)

 Can you see DNA
under a
microscope?
Yes, but not in detail.

“Many scientists use electron,

scanning tunneling and atomic
force microscopes to view
individual DNA molecules,” said
Michael W. Davidson, curator of
the National High Magnetic Field
Laboratory at Florida State
University.
