Answer #1

According to Chargaff's rule, the amount of purines is equal to the amount of pyrimidine in a DNA. Therefore, in an analysis of the number of different bases in a DNA sample, A+G=C+T, will be consistent with the base pairing rules.

1. Adenine must be 25% in this question it's given as 20%, as per basic rule given above. T will be 25

2. C is 25 %

3. There will be 2 hydrogen bonds between A and T, and 3 hydrogen bonds between C and G
