1

Which statement BEST describes the differences between DNA and RNA?

Selecciona una de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • DNA is a double helix while RNA is a single strand.

Which of these are functions of proteins?

Selecciona una o más de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Proteins provide structure e.g collagen to resist tension.

  • Proteins are regulatory and maintain homeostasis e.g. insulin in the plasma membrane.
