  1. 1. -The sugar in DNA is called deoxyribose. The sugar in RNA is called ribose.

    -RNA is a single strand of nucleotides. DNA is made of two strands of nucleotides.

    -DNA is a double helix with hydrogen bonds linking the nitrogen bases. RNA is a linear strand with no hydrogen bonds.

    -The bases of DNA are: Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. The bases of RNA are: Adenine, Uracil, Cytosine, and Guanine.

    -RNA does not have Thymine, and DNA does not have Uracil.

    -In DNA, Adenine pairs with Thymine while Cytosine pairs with Guanine. In RNA, Adenine pairs with Uracil instead, while Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

    -DNA is found only in the nucleus. RNA can be found in the nucleus or cytoplasm of a cell.

    -DNA's main function is to control cell activities, like telling each organelle what to make and what to do. RNA's main function is to make proteins.

    2. Nucleus (if they are eukaryotes)

    3. I would guess too high.

    4. Organelles.


  2. I'm not 100% sure but i'll try.

    1) The nucleus.

    2) turgor pressure is too low, because if it was high the plant cell walls would be stronger and full of whatever, and not wilted.

    3) I don't really get this question, I know they're apart of eukaryotic cells, but i'm not sure of like a group name for them. i guess they're called organelles.
