Answer:
250 H bonds
Explanation:
The Chargaff rule states that a DNA molecule has the following features-
1. Purine binds pyrimidines through hydrogen bond
2. The sum of purine and pyrimidine is equal to 1.
3. Adenine binds thymine always (involve two H bonds)
4. Guanine binds cytosine (involves three H bonds)
In the given question,
guanine bases- 50, therefore, cytosine bases will be 50
H bond will be 50 x 3 = 150 bonds
Similarly,
Adenine bases will be 50 equal thymine which will also be 50
double H bond will be - 50 x 2= 100
Total H bond will be- 250 H bonds.
Thus, 250 H bonds are the correct answer.
