The similarity between DNA and RNA is that both:
1. are polymers of nucleotides
2. have a similar pyrimidine
3. have similar sugars
4. genetic material
During transcription, if the nucleotide sequence of the DNA strand that is being coded is ATACG, then the nucleotide sequence in the mRNA would be:
