Detailed explanation-1: -Nitrogen base not found in DNA is uracil. It is found only in RNA.
Detailed explanation-2: -Uracil is one of four nitrogen bases, most frequently found in normal RNA. Uracyl can be found also in DNA as a result of enzymatic or non-enzymatic deamination of cytosine as well as misincorporation of dUMP instead of dTMP during DNA replication.
Detailed explanation-3: -Final answer: Uracil is not found in DNA.
Detailed explanation-4: -Uracil is not found in DNA as it uracil has more base pair affinity to adenine, guanine and cytosine. Instead thymine is present in DNA.
Detailed explanation-5: -The uracil present in RNA(ribonucleic acid) bonds with a double hydrogen bond with Adenine while absent in DNA(Deoxyribonucleic acid).
