DNA is an acronym for deoxyribonucleic acid, whereas RNA stands for ribonucleic acid. Even though both DNA and RNA carry genetic content, there are a number of differences between them. In review, DNA is composed of the sugar deoxyribose, whereas RNA consists of the sugar ribose. The only distinction between ribose and deoxyribose is based on the fact that ribose contains more –OH group than deoxyribose that contains –H connected to the second (2′) carbon ring. Secondly, carbon is a double stranded molecule whereas RNA is a single stranded molecule. Thirdly, DNA is stable under alkaline conditions whereas RNA is not stable
