    DNA and RNA are nucleic acids that serve as the primary carriers of genetic information. DNA contains the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all living organisms. It is composed of deoxyribose sugar, phosphate groups, and four nitrogen bases: adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. RNA is important for converting the genetic information of DNA into proteins. Unlike DNA, RNA contains ribose sugar and the nitrogen base uracil instead of thymine. Both DNA and RNA form base pairs between nucleotides with adenine pairing with thymine in DNA and uracil in RNA, and cytosine pairing with guanine.
