Chargaff’s rules for pairing of nitrogen bases is
A
A=C and G=T
B
A pairs with T and G pairs with C
C
A pairs with G and C pairs with T
D
A pairs with C and G pairs with T
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chargaff’s rules state that in the DNA of any species and any organism, the amount of guanine should be equal to the amount of cytosine and the amount of adenine should be equal to the amount of thymine. Further a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of purine and pyrimidine bases (i.e., A+G=T+C ) should exist.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chargaff’s rules states that DNA from any cell of all organisms should have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine is equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine is equal to thymine.
