The part of the twisted ladder or double helix of DNA is made for the nucleotide bases are adenine always pairs up with thymine on the other side, guanine always pairs up with cytosine.
DNA has two polynucleotide molecules that spiral around an imaginary axis to form a double helix. only certain bases in the double helix are compatible with each other. Adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine.
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are complementary molecular strands connected by four base pairs. These base pairs are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.
DNA is in a double helix which each of the two strands being complementary (i.e. opposites of each other).This happens because there are four base pairs: A, C, G, T. (Adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine.)Each A can only bind with T. C can only bind with G.In DNA the base pairs are Adenine with Thymine and Guanine with Cytosine.In RNA Thymine is replaced by Uracil so the base pairs are Adenine with Uracil and Guanine with Cytosine.
Normally, DNA forms a right-handed double helix but it can also come in other forms.
Adenine normally partners with thymine in DNA.
Thymine is a nitrogen base that is wound up inside the double helix of DNA. It pairs with Adenine.
Guanine pairs with Cytosine on the human DNA double helix. Adenine pairs with Thymine.
Pair rules also "nitrogenous bases" are: Adenine pairs with thymine Guanine pairs with cytosine Thymine pairs with adenine Cytosine pairs with guanine In case you are wondering when transcription occurs the top of the deoxyribose double-helix backbone can have thymine. Though on the RNA strand it cannot have thymine, but is replaced with Uracil.

It is form of a double helix with a backbone of a sugar-phosphate. The base contains pairs of Adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine.

- It is double stranded - all have base pairing like Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine - they have dioxyribose instead of ribose
Chargaff observed that the number of Guanine units in a section/piece of DNA was the same as the number of Cysteine units and that the number of Thymine units equaled the number of Adenine units. This matched the double helix structure because Cysteine pairs with Guanine, and Thymine pairs with Adenine - meaning that Chargaff was right in that there must be an equal number of Cysteines and Guanines as well as equal Thymines and Adenines.
G to C A to T Guanine pairs with cytosine, and adenine with thymine, due to the hydrogen bonding in two locations between adenine and thymine, and three in guanine and cytosine.
