• B. DNA is more than RNA
• C. RNA and DNA are equal in amount
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B

DNA is more than RNA

The correct option is B.

2. DNA and RNA are found in the nucleus and attached to chromosomes.
3. DNA carries genetic information.
4. RNA is involved in protein synthesis and is present in the nucleolus.
5. DNA contain gene, so DNA is more than RNA.

Final answer: DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) are found in cells of all living beings. The amounts in the cells are DNA is more than RNA.
