Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall that DNA is composed of four nitrogenous bases which are divided into two categories: purines and pyrimidines.
Identify the purines in DNA: adenine (A) and guanine (G).
Identify the pyrimidines in DNA: cytosine (C) and thymine (T).
Note that uracil (U) is not found in DNA; it is found in RNA instead, replacing thymine.
Therefore, the correct set of nitrogenous bases in DNA is adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine.
