The APsolute Recap: Biology Edition - DNA vs. RNA
from The APsolute RecAP: Biology Edition · host Melanie Kingett, Zach Caruso, Brad Kingett
It’s the battle of the nucleic acids in Episode 32! DNA may have all the information, but RNA does all the work. DNA and RNA are made of nucleotide monomers (1:05). DNA and RNA nucleotides differ in their pentose sugar (1:55) and pyrimidine base ( 3:00). DNA forms an antiparallel double helix (3:50) compared to the single strand RNA (5:05), forming mRNA, rRNA and tRNA.The Question of the Day asks (6:44) “Nucleic acids are one of two biological molecules that contain the element nitrogen. What is the other?”Thank you for listening to The APsolute RecAP: Biology Edition!(AP is a registered trademark of the College Board and is not affiliated with The APsolute RecAP.
