Question
Chapter 22, Problem 22.54P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The base pair which is unique to each setting, namely, complementary base pairing occurs between two strands of DNA, and between one strand of DNA and one strand of RNA should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Complementary base pairing is the standard arrangements of bases in nucleotides which relates to their opposite pairing.
DNA molecules consist of 2 DNA strands, which bind with base pairs as below.
Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T).
Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).
RNA molecules consist of one RNA strand, which binds with base pairs as below.
Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U).
Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).
