Question
dna structure and function assignment (cw)
in dna remember that a (adenine) binds and matches with t (thymine), and c (cytosine) binds and matches with g (guanine).
if 30% of the dna contains thymine, what percent adenine would the dna contain? (think about it - a and t match with each other)
30%
15%
45%
60%
Step1: Recall base - pairing rule
In DNA, A pairs with T.
Step2: Determine adenine percentage
Since A and T are complementary, if T is 30%, then A is also 30%.
