Question
Chapter 16, Problem 63E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The complement for each of the bases is to be given.
Concept Introduction:
DNA consists of two complementary strands of
The complementary nature of the individual base units is the reason behind DNA’s ability to self-replicate.
Each of the four bases, A, T, C, and G, has a complementary partner with which it forms hydrogen bonds.
Each base pairs only with its complementary partner.
Adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G).
