There are two differences that distinguish DNA from RNA: (a) RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the slightly different sugar deoxyribose (a type of ribose that lacks one oxygen atom), and (b) RNA has the nucleobase uracil while DNA contains thymine.
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.
