5 0

Answer:

65

Explanation:

The DNA segment has a total 95 cytosine bases. Since cytosine makes hydrogen bonds with guanine base, this means that the DNA segment has a total 95 guanine bases.

Total guanine + cytosine bases in the segment= 95 + 95 = 190

So, a total of adenine and thymine bases in the DNA segment= 320-190 = 130

Since the number of adenine and thymine bases are equal in a double-stranded DNA molecule, the number of adenine bases in the given segment would be= 130/2= 65
