If a double stranded DNa molecule is 15% thyamine , then what are the percentages of all the other basis?
Answers
Answer:
There are only four bases in DNA Adenine, Thymine, Guanine and cytosine.
Adenine pairs with Thymine and Guanine pairs with Cytosine. So, if you know the percentage of any one base pair you can calculate the percentage of other three by using simple math.
according to Chargaff’s rule, concentration of each base pair is always equal to its mate. So, if Concentration of Thymine is 15% then it’s obvious that the concentration of Adenine is also 15% because that 15% thymine is bound to Adenine only.
The concentration of these four bases will make together 100%, that’s why in this case, 15% is Thymine, 15% is Adenine together making 30%. Remaining 70% is guanine and Cytosine pair i.e. 35% Guanine and 35% cytosine.
