The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).

DNA bases pair up with each other, A with T and C with G, to form units called base pairs.

Hope it helps.!!!

A = T; C = G

Explanation:

  • Erwin Chargaff was known for his work on the biochemistry of DNA molecule.
  • He worked on the complementary base pairing that purine bind pyrimidine in which adenine binds thymine and guanine binds the cytosine. He showed that the base air with each other through the hydrogen bonds.
  • In the given question, the option which shows that adenine binds thymine and cytosine binds guanine is correct.
