In DNA, Adenine will always bond with its base pair Thymine. The base Guanine will only bond with its pair Cytosine. Commonly, these complentations can be confused with that of RNA (Ribonucleic acid) where the nitrogenous base Uracil replaces Thymine to pair with Adenine.
adenine bonds with thymine and guanine bonds with cytosine
Thymine and adenine! Also guanine and uracil.
In DNA, Guanine bonds to Cytosine, via three hydrogen bonds, and Thymine bonds to Adenine, via two hydrogen bonds.
Guanine binds through hydrogenic bonds with Cytosine while Adenine and Thymine pair together.
Adenine and Thymine
Cytosine and Guanine
One way to remember this is by remembering: Apple Tree Chewing Gum (Since A is paired with T and C is paired with G).
A always pairs up with T, and C always pairs up with G.
DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds that form between the nitrogen bases of both strands.
nitrogen bases are found in the structures of adenine guanine etc.they are bonded with hydrogen bonds to each other.
Attraction between ions is the cause.
cytosine and thymine are pyrimidine bases, and adenine and quanine are purine bases:)). YOUR WELCOME!!
It happens so that each nitrogen atom can have 8 electrons (an octet), which is a stable form. It results in a nitrogen triple bonded to another nitrogen, and then each nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. :N triple bond N:
Adenine and Thymine together and cytosine and guanine together.
Adenine and Thymine together and cytosine and guanine together.
hydrogen bonds
A nitrogen molecule contains two nitrogen atoms which are bonded to each other through a covalent triple bond.
DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds that form between the nitrogen bases of both strands.
:N:::N: triple bond
:N:::N: triple bond
Nitrogen and phosphorous will tend to form covalent bonds with each other.
nitrogen bases are found in the structures of adenine guanine etc.they are bonded with hydrogen bonds to each other.
Describe how each of the DNA nitrogen bases pair together
hydrogen bond
Guanine and Cytosine pair with each other and Adenine and Thymine pair with each other.
