it is double-stranded

the sugar is called ribose

is only found in the cell's nucleus

its nitrogenous bases are A, G, T, and C

is translated in the cytoplasm

Answer 1

Option (2) and (5).

Step-by-step explanation:

RNA is present as a genetic material in some viruses only. RNA is a single stranded molecule that can be found in the nucleus as well as cytoplasm. The nitrogenous bases present in RNA are adenine, uracil, guanine and cytosine.

RNA contains ribose sugar in its structure. The translation of RNA occur in the cytoplasm by the process known as translation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2) and (5).
