The color wheel is made up of three different types of colors - Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary. The primary colors are red, yellow, and blue. They are called primary for a couple of reasons. First, no two colors can be mixed to create a primary color.
RNA contains uracil and DNA Thymine. RNA has five bases, but DNA only four. DNA contains a deoxyribose sugar, but RNA contains ribose sugar. DNA is a double strand of nucleotides, but RNA a single strand.
The primary, or canonical, nucleobases are cytosine (DNA and RNA), guanine (DNA and RNA), adenine (DNA and RNA), thymine (DNA) and uracil (RNA), abbreviated as C, G, A, T, and U, respectively. Because A, G, C, and T appear in the DNA, these molecules are called DNA-bases; A, G, C, and U are called RNA-bases. Uracil and thymine are identical except that uracil lacks the 5' methyl group. Adenine and guanine belong to the double-ringed class of molecules called purines (abbreviated as R).
