1. They’re both nucleic acids because they’re both made of nucleotides. They both use A,C and G as their bases. mRNA is a copy of DNA.
2. Shape: DNA- Double Helix mRNA- Single Helix
Nitrogen Bases: DNA- ATCG mRNA- AUCG
Sugars: DNA- Deoxyribose mRNA- Ribose
Location: DNA- nucleus mRNA- made in nucleus moves to the ribosome into cytoplasm
