Answer:
A molecule containing genetic information - DNA
RNA base that pairs with adenine - Uracil
Carries amino acid to ribosomes - tRNA
The site of protein synthesis - Ribosome
DNA base that pairs with adenine - Thymine
Carries the genetic code to ribosomes - mRNA
Explanation:
DNA is the molecule that is responsible for conveying genetic information in living organisms. It is made up of deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and purine/pyrimidine bases. The purine bases consist of adenine and guanine while the pyrimidine bases include thymine and cytosine. As a matter of rule in the DNA, Adenine base always pairs with Thymine base while the Cytosine base always pairs with Guanine base.
RNA on the other hand is single-stranded unlike the double strands of DNA. It has all the nucleotide bases present in DNA except that the Thymine bases are usually replaced with Uracil.
There are three types of RNA:
- the messenger RNA that is responsible for carrying genetic code from DNA to the ribosome for translation purpose,
- the transfer RNA responsible for carrying amino acids to ribosome during the translation process; and
- the ribosomal RNA which forms an integral part of the subunits of the ribosome itself.
