By forming matching hydrogen bonds.
A pairs with T ,G pairs with C , T pairs with A, G pairs with C during replication .
In DNA, the nitrogen bases pair specifically with each other through hydrogen bonds: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). This complementary base pairing is essential for the structure of the DNA double helix and ensures accurate replication during cell division.
Base pairing refers to the pairing of complimentary nitrogen bases, either during DNA replication, or transcription and translation. In DNA, the bases adenine and thymine pair together, and guanine and cytosine pair together. In RNA, the base uracil takes the place of the base thymine. The bases that pair together are said to be complimentary to each other.
The four DNA nitrogen bases pairing rules are: adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine. This complementary base pairing is essential for DNA replication and transmission of genetic information.
During DNA replication, the DNA bases pair up in a specific way: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). This pairing is essential for accurately copying the genetic information stored in DNA.
This is the process of DNA replication. A DNA strand in the nucleus of a cell, starts off by being "unzipped" by helicase (an enzyme). Then another enzyme, DNA polymerase matches the nitrogen bases (which are freely floating in the nucleus), of each half with their matches, this forms two identical strands, of DNA.
Uracil and adenosine.
Describe how each of the DNA nitrogen bases pair together
The four bases involved in DNA replication are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). These bases pair up specifically (A with T and C with G) during DNA replication to ensure accurate copying of the genetic information.
In protein synthesis, complimentary nitrogen bases are found in the process of transcription and translation. In transcription, DNA's nitrogen bases A (adenine), T (thymine), G (guanine), and C (cytosine) pair with RNA's nitrogen bases A (adenine), U (uracil), G (guanine), and C (cytosine). In translation, codons on mRNA, made up of A, U, G, and C, pair with anticodons on tRNA during protein synthesis.

Nitrogen bases in DNA are responsible for carrying genetic information. They pair up in specific combinations (adenine with thymine, cytosine with guanine) to form the rungs of DNA's double helix structure. This pairing is essential for accurately copying and transmitting genetic information during processes like DNA replication and protein synthesis.
