In a sample of double-stranded DNA, 12% of the nitrogenous bases are guanine (G). What percentage of the nitrogenous bases in the sample are cytosine

Respuesta :

Answer:

12%

Explanation:

The percentage of Guanine and Cytosine in DNA are equal to each other, as one molecule of guanine bonds with one molecule of cytosine.

  • If 12% of the nitrogenous bases are guanine, then another 12% will be Cytosine.

Conversely, the percentage of adenine and thymine in DNA are equal to each other.
