--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

2. It can contain the pyrimidine uracil.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

3. This contains the pyrimidine thymine.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

4. In terms of base composition, the %T = %G.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

5. This contains the sugar ribose.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

6. The sugars are connected with a 3'-5' phosphodiester link.

-->DNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

7. It contains equal amounts of guanine and cytosine.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

8. Bases are attached to sugars in an N-glycosidic linkage.

-->DNA only

--> RNA only

--> Both

-->Neither

Explanation / Answer

1. Both

2. RNA only

3. DNA only

4. Neither (since A bonds with T, and G with C, so no correlation between T and G)

5. RNA only

6. Both

7. DNA only (since RNA is single stranded, no pairing up, so no correlation)

8. Both
