Yes because they always paired thymine with adenine or always paired adenine with thymine, never pairing either with cytosine or guanine. Therefore they are in equal amounts.

Did Watson and Cricks model account for the equal amounts of thymine and adenine in DNA?

yes it did.


Did Watson and Cricks model account for the equals amounts of thymine and adenine in DNA?

yes it did.


What nucleotide basis are present in equal amounts of DNA?

The nucleotide bases guanine and cytosine, and adenine and thymine are present in equal quantities in DNA. This is how scientists determined that guanine pairs with cytosine, and adenine pairs with thymine.


How did Watson and Crick and model explain why there are equal amounts of thymine and adenine in DNA?

Watson and Crickâ??s model explains that hydrogen bonds can only form between certain base pairs. Thymine can only bond with adenine and guanine can only bond with cytosine. This is why there are equal amounts of thymine and adenine in DNA.


What is correct about Chargaff's rule for each species A adenine equals guanine B adenine equals thymine C adenine equals cytosine D adenine guanine thymine and cytosine amounts are equal?

in each species the amount of adenine equals the amount of cytosine

What does Adenine A bond with?

Adenine bonds with thymine in DNA and uracil in RNA.


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.*


Which nitrogen base bonds with adenine?

Thymine will always bond with adenine, and guanine will always bind with cytosine.


In each species does the amount of adenine equal to the amount of thymine?

Every adenine in DNA will be paired to a thymine. However in RNA adenine is paired to uracil. So no - all else being equal since there is DNA and RNA in a body there will not be equal amounts.


What does adenine match with?

In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine. In RNA, adenine pairs with uracil.
