Thymine
Thymine is a base found in DNA but not in RNA. In RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil.
Uracil is not naturally present in DNA. Instead, it is found in RNA, where it replaces the thymine base found in DNA. Thymine is the corresponding base in DNA and is not found in RNA.
A nitrogenous base called uracil is found in RNA but not in DNA. Conversely, DNA contains the nitrogenous base thymine, which is absent in RNA.
RNA uses uracil instead of thyminelike DNA does.
