Question

the single strand of nucleic acid shown is representative of
a) rna.
b) both rna and dna.
c) dna.
d) protein.

Explanation:

To determine the nucleic acid type, we analyze the base present. RNA contains uracil (U), while DNA has thymine (T). The strand shown has uracil (U), so it is RNA. Also, proteins are not nucleic acids, and DNA doesn't have U. So the correct option is A.

Answer:

A) RNA
