Question

In a single organism, what do you notice about the relative proportions of DNA bases? A and T occur in similar proportions. T and G occur in similar proportions. A and C occur in similar proportions. G and C occur in similar proportions.

Answer 1

A and T are in similar proportion.

and G and C are too in same proportional!!

Answer 2

The correct answer will be option A and T occur in similar proportions and G and C occur in similar proportions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Erwin Chargaff proposed the rule of the base pairing of the nitrogenous bases present in the DNA.

He stated that:

1. Purine binds to pyrimidine of the complementary strand in DNA where A binds T and G binds C, therefore, A and T and G and C are present in the equal proportion.

2. The composition of DNA varies from species to species.

Thus, both the selected options are the correct answer.
