Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The purines adenine and guanine and the pyrimidine cytosine are common to both DNA and RNA.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA and RNA molecules both contain four nitrogenous bases. Three of these (adenine, cytosine, and guanine) are found in both types of nucleic acid.
Detailed explanation-3: -Both DNA and RNA are made from nucleotides, each containing a five-carbon sugar backbone, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.
Detailed explanation-4: -Final answer: Purines found both in DNA and RNA are adenine and guanine.
