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.
CGT base triplet on DNA is copied into mRNA as GCA. This is because DNA and RNA follow complementary base pairing rules, where C in DNA pairs with G in RNA, G in DNA pairs with C in RNA, and T in DNA pairs with A in RNA.
RNA has the base uracil which replaces the thymine base of DNA.
RNA has the base uracil which replaces the thymine base of DNA.

An uracil base is in RNA but not in DNA
Sugar- DNA has a deoxyribose sugar base while RNA has a ribose sugar base. This means that DNA's sugar base has one less oxygen than RNA's (de means one less and oxy is short for oxygen).# of Strands- DNA is double stranded (made of two strands) while RNA is single stranded (made of one strand).Nitrogen Bases- DNA and RNA both share the nitrogen bases of Adenine, Cytosine, and Guanine. However, DNA contains the nitrogen base of Thymine while RNA contains Uracil. The base pairing rules of DNA are A-T and G-C while the base pairing rules of RNA are A-U and G-C. So as you can see, uracil merely replaces thymine in RNA.
In RNA, adenine pairs with uracil. This pairing follows the complementary base pairing rules, where adenine pairs with uracil instead of thymine, as in DNA.

uracil is in rna not in DNA
RNA polymerase reads the DNA template and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand by linking together RNA nucleotides according to the base pairing rules. RNA polymerase moves along the DNA strand in the 3' to 5' direction, synthesizing the RNA transcript in the 5' to 3' direction.
Uracil is in RNA and Thyramine is in DNA, the other nitrogen bases are the same In RNA Adenine is complementary to Uracil and Guanine is complementary to cytocine In DNA Adenine is complementarty to Tyramine and Guanine is complentary to cytocine
In DNA thymine is one of the nitrogen bases, but in RNA uracil replaces thymine still leaving four nitrogen bases
