**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding RNA Structure**: RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) is a type of nucleic acid that plays a crucial role in various biological processes. It is composed of nucleotides, which include a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. 2. **Identifying the Sugar in RNA**: The sugar present in RNA is called ribose. This is different from the sugar found in DNA, which is deoxyribose. 3. **Examining the Structure of Ribose**: Ribose has a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to its second carbon atom (C2). This is a key feature that distinguishes ribose from deoxyribose, which lacks this hydroxyl group at the second carbon. ...
