Which of the following represents the WatsonCrick DNA base pair model?
A. G-T B. T-C C. T-A D. G-A
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
base pair is a unit consisting of two nucleobases which are bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. They form the building blocks of the DNA double helix Watson-crick base pairs (guanine-cytosine) and (adeninethymine). Please note the order: guanine pairs with cytosine \((\mathrm{G}-\mathrm{C})\) while thymine pairs with adenine \((\mathrm{T}-\mathrm{A})\)
