Well, first off, it doesn't. A pairs with T in DNA, but with U in RNA. That aside, it's basically for the same reason your key opens your door, but not your neighbor's door. Adenine just doesn't "fit" with cytosine or guanine the same way as it does with thymine and uracil; the hydrogen bonds don't line up right.
Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G) pair, as do Adenine (A) and Thymine (T).
Which of the following would indicate a base pairing mutation in DNA?1) an A paired with a T2) a C paired with a G3) a G paired with a T4) all the above are improrer base pairsThe correct answer is #3A should pair with T and G should pair with CIf A paired with C or G paired with T it would be a base pairing mutation.
The base pairing-rules for DNA are that, only the Nitrogen Bases of DNA which are; Adenine "A"-which only pairs with-Thymine "T", and Cytosine "C"-which only pairs with-Guanine "G" can only pair to one another within that sequence.Posted By; JoelBaum24
The letter "t" pairs with the letter "h" to make the "th" sound in words like "that" and "think."
In DNA, the bases that pair together are adenine (A) with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) with guanine (G).
Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G) pair, as do Adenine (A) and Thymine (T).
No. Adenine doesn't even usually pair with Cytosine. If you're talking about DNA, Adenine pairs with Thymine and Cytosine pairs with Guanine. A with T, C with G. This is only a general rule, however- Adenine and Cytosine can pair if you have a wobble base pair.
A,C,T,G "A" and "T" always pair "C", "G" always pair
Not in DNA. In DNA the only base pairs are A-T and C-G. RNA can form non-canonical base pairings, so you might get some AC in RNA structures.
