The percentage of adenine in DNA isolated from human liver is observed to be 30.7%. What is the expected percentage of thymine, guanine, and cytosine?
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
According to Chargaff's rule ratio of adenine to thymine is one and the ratio of guanine to cytosine is one. Thus, percentage of adenine is equal to thymine. If 30.7 % is adenine than 30.7% is thymine, and remaining 38.6% is guanine and cytosine (G = 19.3%, C = 19.3%).
