    • Transcribes a gene to then leave the nucleus towards the ribosomes.

  • Types:

    • Messenger | mRNA
    • Transfer | tRNA
    • Ribosomal | rRNA

  • Structure is a Single Helix, and can have complex shapes

  • Turns code from DNA into Proteins

  • No Thymine, uses Uracil.

    • What isn't found in RNA, that is found in DNA? ;; Uracil, which replaces Thymine

  • Same base pair rule

    • DNA A T A
    • RNA U A U
    • What is a base pair rule? ;; A rule wherein one base, must bond with it's opposite base.
