Which pair of nitrogen bases are correctly matched?
|
|
adenine with cytosine
|
|
|
adenine with thymine
|
|
|
cytosine with thymine
|
|
|
guanine with adenine
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Under normal circumstances, the nitrogen-containing bases adenine (A) and thymine (T) pair together, and cytosine (C) and guanine (G) pair together.
Detailed explanation-2: -In DNA, adenine always pairs with thymine (A-T), and guanine always pairs with cytosine (G-C). RNA is the same, except that adenine always pairs with uracil (A-U).
Detailed explanation-3: -Option A Adenine, thymine-Purines is wrongly matched.
Detailed explanation-4: -In base pairing, adenine always pairs with thymine, and guanine always pairs with cytosine.
