Did Watson's and crick's model account for the equal amounts of thymine and adenine in DNA?

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.


Is there always going to be an equal nucleotide in a molecule?

In a double-stranded DNA molecule, there are always equal amounts of adenine (A) and thymine (T), as well as equal amounts of cytosine (C) and guanine (G), due to base pairing rules. However, in single-stranded DNA or RNA, there is no requirement for equal nucleotide composition, and the proportions of each nucleotide can vary significantly. Thus, while complementary strands of DNA exhibit this equality, it does not universally apply to all nucleotide sequences.


Chargaff showed that DNA contains equal amounts of cytosine and?

guanine, and equal amounts of adenine and thymine. This became known as Chargaff's Rule, a crucial discovery in understanding the structure and function of DNA.


Is there always going to be an equal number of guanine and cytosine nucleotides in a molecules Why?

That depends on what the molecule is. In DNA, there will be the same concentration of each, because they are paired, and DNA is a double stranded molecule. Thus, for each cytosine, there will be a guanine, and vice versa. In RNA however, it is single stranded, so the two do not have to match exactly.


Why is the amount of guanine always equal to the amount of cytosine?

Guanine and cytosine always pair together due to specific hydrogen bonding interactions that stabilize their association in the DNA double helix. This base pairing rule is known as Chargaff's rule, where the amount of guanine is always equal to the amount of cytosine in a DNA molecule.

Which two bases are present in equal amounts in a double-stranded DNA molecule?

The two bases that are present in equal amounts in a double stranded DNA molecule are cytosine and guanine. Cytosine pairs with guanine in A DNA molecule.


How many Guanine's are in a DNA?

There is no consistent amount of guanine in everyone's DNA, but there is an equal amount of guanine and cytosine as well equal amounts of thymine and adenine.
