Question

The type of bond which joins the complementary nitrogenous bases is called?

Answer 1

Answer:

Nucleic Acid Nucleobases Base complement

DNA adenine(A), thymine(T), guanine(G), cytosine(C) A=T, G≡C

RNA adenine(A), uracil(U), guanine(G), cytosine(C) A=U, G≡C

Answer 2

Hydrogen bond

Explanation:

• DNA  contains four bases : Guanine, cytosine, adenine , and thymine .
• The complementary base pairs of guanine with cytosine, and adenine with tymine connect to one another using hydrogen bonds.
• Adenine pairs with thymine with 2 hydrogen bonds.
• Guanine pairs with cytosine with 3 hydrogen bonds.
