  1. DNA has more protein.


  2. RNA is a copy of DNA

    but RNA is not a double helix

    so i would assume DNA

    has more proteins

  3. ??? I'm not sure of your question. Neither of them have a protein-like structures since neither of them are comprised of proteins. RNA and DNA both consist of long chains of nucleotide units. Maybe you are referring to the role that RNA plays, biologically speaking...

    "RNA is transcribed from DNA by enzymes called RNA polymerases and is generally further processed by other enzymes. RNA is central to the synthesis of proteins. Here, a type of RNA called messenger RNA carries information from DNA to structures called ribosomes. These ribosomes are made from proteins and ribosomal RNAs, which come together to form a molecular machine that can read messenger RNAs and translate the information they carry into proteins. There are RNAs with other roles – in particular regulating which genes are expressed, but also as the genome of most viruses".
