Detailed explanation-1: -The four bases in DNA are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). These bases form specific pairs (A with T, and G with C). Base pair may also refer to the actual number of base pairs, such as 8 base pairs, in a sequence of nucleotides.
Detailed explanation-2: -Adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine are the four nucleotides found in DNA.
Detailed explanation-3: -The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same in all people.
Detailed explanation-4: -DNA sequences have been described which use newly created nucleobases to form a third base pair, in addition to the two base pairs found in nature, A-T (adenine – thymine) and G-C (guanine – cytosine).
Detailed explanation-5: -ATCG stands for Adenosine Thymine Cytosine Guanine (nucleotides making up DNA)
