What are two basic differences between DNA and RNA? RNA is usually single stranded, while DNA is usually double stranded. RNA contains uracil, while DNA contains thymine. RNA is usually double stranded, while DNA is usually single stranded. RNA contains thymine, while DNA contains uracil. RNA doesn’t contain cytosine, while DNA doesn’t contain adenine.

Explanation

the two basic difference between RNA and DNA are

RNA is single stranded while DNA is double stranded

RNA contain uracil and DNA contain thymine

a

explanation:

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
