Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall the base pairing rules in DNA, which describe how nitrogenous bases pair with each other to form the double helix structure.
Understand that DNA is composed of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
Remember that adenine (A) pairs specifically with thymine (T) through two hydrogen bonds, ensuring complementary base pairing.
Note that uracil (U) is found in RNA, not DNA, and pairs with adenine (A) in RNA instead of thymine.
Conclude that in DNA, adenine (A) always pairs with thymine (T), which maintains the structure and function of the DNA molecule.
