Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which base pairs with adenine in DNA?
  • Step 1: Understand that DNA is made up of building blocks called nucleotides.
  • Step 2: Each nucleotide has a base, and there are four types of bases in DNA: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
  • Step 3: Learn that in DNA, bases pair with each other to form the structure of the DNA molecule.
  • Step 4: Know that adenine (A) specifically pairs with thymine (T).
  • Step 5: Remember that this pairing happens through weak bonds called hydrogen bonds.
