Answer:
26%
Explanation:
Adenine pairs with thymine.
Guanine pairs with cytosine.
If 24% of the DNA molecule is adenine, that means that there is 24% thymine. This is because they pair together so they have to be equal. That is 48% of the DNA molecule. To find the percentage of guanine, we need to minus 48% from the total 100%.
100 - 48 = 52
Then divide by 2 because you have guanine AND cytosine.
52/2 = 26
Therefore, your final answer is 26% of guanine is in the DNA molecule.
