RNA
RNA occurs in Nucleoli, chromosomes and cytoplasm (about
90% of the cells RNA occurs in the cytoplasm). RNA
chemically consists of 5 carbon ribose sugar. RNA is single
stranded molecule/ RNA is chemical messenger and plays a
key role in the process of Protein synthesis,
RNA consists of sugars, bases and Phosphoric acid. Sugar is
ribose against Deoxyribose in DNA. In RNA the bases are
adenine, guanine, uracil and cytosine i.e. they mine of DNA is
replaced by uracil.
Types of RNA
Various types of RNA are found in plant cells.
(a)
Messenger RNA (mRNA)
Which carries the information contained in DNA
(b)
Transfer RNA (t RNA)
Also known as soluble RNA which work as adaptor
molecules for carrying amino acids to the site of Protein
synthesis
(c)
Ribosomal RNA (r RNA)
Which is associated with ribosome. All these three types
are monogenetic RNA.
