Th nitrogen bases for DNA are: thymine (T), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and adenine (A). For RNA they are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil (U).

DNA base pairing is highly specific: T pairs with A (T-A) and G pairs with C (G-C).

RNA base pairing is not as specific, but can be said to occur like so: U pairing with A (U-A) and G pairing with C.

Which nitrogen base pairs can be found in DNA?

The nitrogen bases found in DNA are adenine (A) which pairs with thymine (T), and guanine (G) which pairs with cytosine (C). These base pairs are essential for the complementary nature of DNA strands.


What is the normal pairing of nitrogen bases found in a DNA molecule?

In DNA, the nitrogen base adenine (A) pairs with the nitrogen base thymine (T), and the nitrogen base cytosine (C) pairs with the nitrogen base guanine (G). So the base pairs are A:T and C:G. One way to remember is that A:T spells the word "at."


In what way do the nitrogen bases bond?

Nitrogen bases in DNA bond through hydrogen bonds. Adenine pairs with thymine, and guanine pairs with cytosine, creating complementary base pairs that hold the two strands of the DNA double helix together.


What are the pairs of nitrogen basses in DNA?

The pairs of nitrogen bases in DNA are adenine paired with thymine, and guanine paired with cytosine. These pairs are held together by hydrogen bonds, forming the complementary base pairs that make up the DNA double helix structure.


What type of bond holds one nitrogen base to its complementary base?

I Believe the answer is sequence of nitrogen bases. 70 Year old woman in 5th Grade , i think i know this.


What are complementary base pairs and can you provide an example?

Complementary base pairs are nucleotide bases in DNA that always bond together in a specific way: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). An example of complementary base pairs is A-T and C-G.


Due to the strict pairing of nitrogen base pairs in DNA molecules the two strands are said to be what to each other?

Complementary. The base pairs in DNA always follow a specific pairing rule (A with T, and C with G), which means that the sequence of bases on one strand determines the sequence on the other, making them complementary.


One of two purines used as a nitrogen base in nucleotides?

Adenine and Guanine are the two purines used as nitrogen bases in nucleotides. They form complementary base pairs with thymine and cytosine in DNA and with uracil and cytosine in RNA.


Witch nitrogen bases in DNA go together?

Adenine with Thymine and Cytosine with Guanine


How do nitrogen bases form together?

Nitrogen bases form together through hydrogen bonding between complementary bases (adenine with thymine, and cytosine with guanine). This base pairing allows for the formation of a stable double helix structure in DNA.


What are the 4 nitrogen bases in rna?

The four nitrogen bases in RNA are adenine (A), uracil (U), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). Uracil replaces thymine found in DNA as one of the bases. Each base pairs with a complementary base during transcription.


A nitrogen base in RNA that is complementary to thymine is?

Thymine is not present in RNA, only in DNA. The base pairs for RNA are adenine & uracil, and guanine & cytosine. Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA.
