Question

1. consider the bases that make up a dna molecule. if 10% of the bases are thymine (t), what percentage of the bases would be adenine (a)? circle your answer. 10% 20% 40% 80%

Explanation:

Step1: Recall base pairing rule

In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), so their percentages are equal.

Step2: Determine adenine percentage

Given thymine (T) is 10%, so adenine (A) is also 10%.

Answer:

10% (and we would circle the "10%" option from the given choices: 10%, 20%, 40%, 80%)
