Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
It has always double stranded a-helix structure
RNA does not have double stranded a-helix structure. Helixes present in RNA are single-stranded but sometimes they fold back on themselves to form a double helix structure. RNA has the ability to replicate. It is present in the nucleus of the cell. It controls the synthesis of protein. RNA molecules are of three types, i.e. messenger's RNA (m-RNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), transfer RNA (t-RNA)
