1) DNA has thymine, RNA has uracil
2) RNA is single stranded, DNA is double stranded
3) DNA has deoxyribose sugar, RNA has ribose sugar
4) There are 3 types of RNA: tRNA, mRNA, rRNA. DNA is the only type of DNA.

In humans, DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded
DNA contains Deoxyribose sugar molecule while RNA contains Ribose sugar molecule (hence the names)
DNA has Adenine Guanine Thymine and Cytosine as Nitro bases, while RNA has Uracil instead of Thymine
DNA has no types- RNA is of three types: m-RNA, r-RNA, and t-RNA

1. Thymine and Uracil.
2. Deoxyribose sugar used vs. Ribose sugar used.
3. Created through replication vs. Created through transcription.
4. In Humans, Double Stranded vs. Single Stranded. There is Double Stranded RNA, but it's not found in a lot of higher level organisms.
