Answer:

36 thymine and 24 guanine.

Explanation:

A DNA is a double helix structure in which each helix consists of complementary bases.

The complementary bases are -

a) Adenine and thymine

b) guanine and cytosine

Thus above two pairs of nucleotide bases pair with each other in equal amount .

Thus , if 36 bases of adenine has to form a pair with thymine there must be 36 bases of thymine

Like wise, if 24 bases of cytosine has to form a pair with guanine there must be 24 bases of guanine

Thus , the correct answer is option 36 thymine and 24 guanine.

lara31 [8.8K]

The correct answer is transitional.  

Gerobatrachus refers to an extinct genus of amphibamid temnospondyl, which thrived in the initial Permian, that is, about 290 mya, in the region, which is now known as Baylor County, Texas. The transitional form of fossils are those that demonstrate the intermediate form between the two distinct living species, it could be in a form of an ancestor and its descendants. It is considered that the frogs and salamanders have evolved from a common ancestor of primitive amphibian tetrapod subclass known as Temnospondyli.
