DNA codes for our genotype, which is the genetic representation of out traits. There are multiple kinds of RNA but it is mostly used to aid the replication of DNA.

Explanation:

DNA is the strand of nucleic acid, sugars and phosphate group, that is found in the nucleus and mitochondria of every cell. It codes for our genotype, which is essentially the written representation of our traits. There are multiple kinds of RNA but they are mostly used to replicate DNA, they are single stranded as opposed to the double stranded DNA and include the nitrogen base uracil (U), instead of thymine (T). mRNA, tRNA and dsRNA are commonly used to replicate and regulate the DNA sequence.
