After two weeks collecting the blood from mosquitos in the Australian outback, scientists arrive back at the lab to discover that their sequencing will not succeed because there is a large amount of RNA mixed with the DNA in their samples. How might they quickly distinguish the DNA from the RNA in these samples?
a. The DNA will be single-stranded with a deoxyribose sugar and thymine. The RNA will be single-stranded with a hexose sugar and uracil.
b. The DNA will be double-stranded with thymine but no sugar. The RNA will be single-stranded with a ribose sugar and uracil.
c. The DNA will be double-stranded with a deoxyribose sugar and thymine. The RNA will be single-stranded with a ribose sugar and uracil.
d. The DNA will be double stranded with a deoxyribose sugar and uracil. The RNA will be single-stranded with a ribose sugar and thymine.
c. The DNA will be double-stranded with a deoxyribose sugar and thymine. The RNA will be single-stranded with a ribose sugar and uracil.
