D

검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall that DNA is composed of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C).
Understand that base pairing in DNA follows Chargaff's rules, where adenine pairs specifically with thymine, and guanine pairs with cytosine.
Recognize that the pairing occurs through hydrogen bonds: adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine, stabilizing the DNA double helix.
Note that uracil is not found in DNA; it replaces thymine in RNA and pairs with adenine there.
Therefore, identify adenine as the nitrogenous base that forms complementary hydrogen bonds with thymine in DNA.
