You question dosent really make sence, but if you are asking why are they not Purines and Pyramidines...They are Adenine and Guanine are Purines, and then you can realise that Thymine Cytosine and Uracil are all Pyramidines.

If you are asking why are they only considered as purines and prymidines they are not there a many different types of Purines and Pyramidines but because when you study Biology and DNA is a topic that you cover frequently, they are noted but an example of a Purine is Uric Acid (essentially a product when it a Purine is broken down but still considered as a Purine).

Hope this is helpful...

Name the four nitrogen bases?

There are 4 nitrogenous bases found in DNA; Cytosine, Adenine, Guanine, and Thymine. Cytosine pairs with Guanine, and Thymine pairs with Adenine. *In RNA, Uracil replaces Thymine, therefore Adenine pairs with Uracil, in RNA.*

What are four nitrogen bases on DNA?

The four nitrogenouse bases found in DNA are adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. When they are paired up it's always adenine to thymine, guanine to cytosine, thymine to adenine, and cytosine to guanine. They can't be mismatched such as adenine to guanine or cytosine
