Answer:

Option A, In DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base.

Explanation:

DNA is made up of two complementary nucleotide (also referred to as base pairs). It is the purine which associates with the pyrimidine group.  

The four bases in DNA are  

• adenine (A) - a purine

• cytosine(C) - a pyrimidine

• guanine (G) - a purine

• thymine (T) - a pyrimidine

Adenine is complementary to thymine and cytosine is complementary to guanine . Thus, Adenine  forms complementary pair with thymine and cytosine forms complementary pair with guanine.

Hence, option A is correct.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Nucleosomes

2. Chromatin

3. Sister chroamtid

4. Centromere

Explanation:

The DNA is a very long molecule which if has to be passed on to the daughter cell as it is will cause problems. So, to reduce problems a cell form tightly packed structure of DNA so that they can be passed easily to the daughter cell.

The packaging of DNA begins with the wrapping of the DNA around histone proteins which forms the 11 nm basic structural units called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes start condensing each other and form 30 nm structure chromatin fibres.

The chromatin fibres undergo replication during S phase which produces an exact copy of the chromatin called sister chromatids bound to each other at a central point called centromere which helps the separation of the chromatids during M phase.
