DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) is double-strand and deoxyribose sugar is present Whereas in RNA (Ribonucleic acid) is a single strand and Ribose sugar is present.
Explanation:
RNA and DNA different because
DNA
DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA is of two types (intra and extra nuclear) DNA is a double strand. The function of DNA is to store genetic information. In DNA molecule deoxyribose sugar is present. Bases present in DNA are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.
RNA
RNA stands for Ribonucleic acid. There are three types of RNA: rRNA, mRNA, tRNA. RNA is a single strand helix. The function of RNA is to make proteins by transferring the genetic code from the nucleus to ribosomes. In RNA ribose sugar is present. Bases present in RNA are adenine, uracil, guanine, and cytosine.
Thus this how RNA is different for DNA.

-DNA is double stranded, RNA is one stranded
-DNA contains the following nitrogenous bases:Adeninde Guanine Timine Citozine while RNA contains Adeninde Guanine Citozine and Uracil
-DNA function is to contain the information for manufacturing proteins while there are many types of RNA with whole different jobs for example:messanger RNA (mRNA) it coppies a sequence from the DNA strand and takes it to the ribosome in order to be translated as the order for placing aminoacids in the polypeptide strand; transport RNA (tRNA) it is a short RNA strand containing up to 100 nucleotides it takes aminoacids to the ribosome so the polypeptides strand can start to be manufatured from aminoacids in an order inscripted in the mRNA.
