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 purine bases in DNA, which are Adenine (A) and Guanine (G).
Identify the pyrimidine bases in DNA, which are 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 list of bases found in DNA is Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine.
