Question

a student created a table that lists several features of an rna molecule.the student made an error while creating the table. which statement describes the change that the student needs to make in the table?| types of bases | type of sugar | structure | function || ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- || cytosine<br>adenine<br>guanine<br>uracil | deoxyribose | single stranded | protein synthesis |○ the type of base should be thymine instead of uracil.○ the type of sugar should be ribose instead of deoxyribose.○ the structure should be a double helix instead of a single strand.○ the function should be to help in the synthesis of dna instead of protein.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

RNA contains ribose sugar, not deoxyribose (which is in DNA). The table incorrectly lists deoxyribose for RNA; the other options are wrong: RNA uses uracil (not thymine), is single-stranded, and functions in protein synthesis.

Answer:

The type of sugar should be ribose instead of deoxyribose.
