Which of the following is correct about the differences between DNA and RNA? DNA is usually double-stranded, and RNA is usually single stranded. O DNA uses the base uracil, while RNA uses thymine. DNA uses the sugar ribose, while RNA used deoxyribose. Most DNA is located in the cytoplasm, while most RNA is in the nucleus.
