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.

Which of the following are important features for transcription?
devlian [24]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A and B.

Explanation:

Transcription is a process which synthesizes a complementary molecule of DNA which acts a messenger called RNA.

The gene contains a sequence of the nucleotide at the beginning of gene called promoter sequence. The promoter sequence has the ability to attach an RNA synthesizing enzyme called RNA polymerase.

The RNA polymerase is the enzyme which synthesizes the RNA molecules using a single strand of DNA called template strand.  RNA polymerase binds nucleotide at 3' end of the strand thus proceeding the strand in 5' to 3' direction.  

The promoter and RNA polymerase begins the process of transcription and thus option-A and B is the correct answer.
