Answer:

Adenine would pair with complimentary base thymine and have a concentration of 22%.

Explanation:

Since purines pair with a pyrimidine, adenine would have to pair with either cytosine or thymine. Cytosine only binds with guanine leaving thymine. Since thymine pairs with adenine, there must be equal amounts in the molecule, therefore it is 22%.
