Presence of uracil at place of thymine in RNA makes it less stable.

Q. Select the correct statements out of the following.
(i) Both $D N A$ and $RN A$ are able to mutate.
(ii) $RN A$ being unstable, mutates at a faster rate.
(iii) $RN A$ shows catalytic properties.
(iv) Presence of uracil $(U)$ at place of thymine $(T)$ confers additional stability to $RN A$ .
