Question

if a DNA sample was tested and 40% of the bases are guanine what % of the bases would be cytosine and what % would be thymine?

Answer 1

Answer:

Since you know there are only four bases in DNA, all four bases together must equal 100 percent of the sample. If given the information that the sample is 20 percent guanine, you can surmise it is also 20 percent cytosine since guanine and cytosine pair with each other. Together, that is 40 percent of the total sample
