There are 3 billion base pairs per cell in a human diploid.
One codon is made up of three base pairs.
A-T base pairs have 2 hydrogen bonds and G-C base pairs have 3 hydrogen bonds. Therefore, A-T base pairs are weaker than G-C base pairs.
none, CFTR is intron free.
Uracil is the base in RNA that pairs with adenine.
According to Hong et al (2006), the average size of an intron is 3479 base pairs. However, the average is skewed by some very large introns. A better picture comes from the median size, which is 1334 base pairs. Reference: Hong X, Scofield DG, Lynch M (2006) Intron size, abundance, and distribution within untranslated regions of genes.

there are five base pairs in klinefelter syndrome
There are three base pairs in each amino acid. If you have 1500 base pairs you would have 500 amino acids.

One codon is made up of three base pairs.
mRNA that includes introns due to errors in mRNA processing will generate dysfunctional or truncated proteins. If the intron introduces a stop codon in the middle of the sequence a truncated protein will be produced. If the intron does not introduce a stop codon the end result is still going to be a protein with many unnecessary amino acids that will most likely interfere with folding and stop it from becoming functional.
A-T base pairs have 2 hydrogen bonds and G-C base pairs have 3 hydrogen bonds. Therefore, A-T base pairs are weaker than G-C base pairs.
