  2. B

    DNA possesses a single strand helix structure and contains uracil as one of the four bases.

  3. C

    RNA possesses a double strand helix structure and contains uracil as one of the four bases.

  4. D

    RNA possesses a single strand helix structure and contains thymine as one of the four bases.
