Q. When RNA is hydrolysed the quantities of the four bases obtained are generally unequal, unlike DNA. What does this fact suggest about the structure of RNA?

J & K CETJ & K CET 2001

Solution:

Hydrolysis of RNA gives unequal amount of four bases. This fact suggests that the structure of RNA is a single strand helix.
