Knoxville is one of the hardest sections of the country in which to predict the weather. There is a topographical reason for Knoxvilleâs gentle climate. The Cumberland Plateau and Great Smoky Mountains shelter the Tennessee Valley, providing an annual average temperature of 56 degrees.
Each nucleotide consists of a sugar, a phosphate and a nucleic acid base. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. The sugar in RNA is ribose, the same as deoxyribose but with one more OH (oxygen-hydrogen atom combination called a hydroxyl).This is the biggest difference between DNA and RNA. Another difference is that RNA molecules can have a much greater variety of nucleic acid bases.he sugar in DNA is deoxyribose. The sugar in RNA is ribose, the same as deoxyribose but with one more OH (oxygen-hydrogen atom combination called a hydroxyl). This is the biggest difference between DNA and RNA.
Differences. 1  DNA contains deoxyribose as the pentose sugar, while RNA contains ribose. 2  Both nucleic acids contain the bases A, C, and G, but DNA has T where RNA has U. RNA doesn't contain T while DNA doesn't contain U. 3  DNA is typically double-stranded while RNA is typically single-stranded.
