Base Pairing RulesIn DNA, Adenine pairs with Thymine while Guanine pairs with Cytosine
One of the two types of nitrogenous bases, They are characterized by a six-membered ring structure composed of four carbon atoms and two nitrogen atoms.The two bases are thymine and cytosine.
There are equal amounts of Adenine to Thymine and Guanine to Cytosine
Antiparallel OrientationThe opposite arrangement of the sugar-phosphate backbones in a DNA double helix
Nitrogenous base in both RNA and DNA, pairs with Guanine
One of two types of nitrogenous bases, it is characterized by their two fused rings. The two bases are adenine and guanine
