All organisms contain DNA, and every organism's DNA is made of the same four nucleotides. The differences between organisms is s
imply based on the order of these nucleotides. Since all organisms have the same basic, universal structure for DNA, which of these must also be universal?
Proteins are composed of amino acids. </span>The four bases in DNA are adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine.
These four are divided into two groups. The pyrimidines, the single-ring nitrogenous bases, is where thymine and cytosine is included. The purines, the double-ring nitrogenous bases, includes adenine and guanine.
<span>Cytosine will only bond with guanine; they form three hydrogen bonds. Adenine will only bond with thymine forming two hydrogen bonds."
