In analyzing the number of different bases in a DNA sample, which result would be consistent with the base-pairing rules?
a. A = G
b. A + G = C + T
c. A + T = G + C
d. A = C

Respuesta :

Answer:

b. A + G = C + T

Explanation:

Chargaff's rule states that a DNA molecule has the same amount of pyrimidines (T and C) as purines (A and G).

In the DNA, A pairs with T and G pairs with C. For that reason, the number of A bases has to be the same as the number of T bases, and the number of G has to be the same as the number of C.
