Respuesta :

Correct choices: 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10.

Statements that are true as regards RNA here are;

  • contains the base guanine
  • contains the base uracil
  • contains the base cytosine
  • is a single strand
  • has a phosphate group
  • contains the sugar ribose
  • contains the base adenine
  • Ribonucleic acid (RNA) can be regarded as a biological macromolecule which helps in  the conversion of  the genetic information of DNA and turn it into proteins.
  • Ribonucleic acid has a  molecule that can be compared with that of  DNA.  RNA is single-stranded, it has a backbone which is composed of  alternating sugar known as (ribose) as well as phosphate groups.
  • RNA has bases such as uracil, cytosine , adenine and guanine.

Therefore, options 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 are correct, because RNA contains ribose sugar.
