R, S, and T always have the same percentage composition, while X, Y, and Z always have the same percentage composition. Chargaff's rule is then a viable theory that can be used in this situation.
- The DNA of any species of any organism must have a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio of the purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, according to Chargaff's principles.
- More specifically, the ratio of guanine and adenine to cytosine and thymine must be the same. This pattern is present in both the strands of the DNA.
- The formula comes as A + G = T + C = 1
- In this universe there are six base pairs R,S,T,X,Y and Z. composition of R,S and T is always same thus these can be considered the purines.
- The percentage composition of X,Y and Z is always the same thus these can be considered the pyrimidines.
- applying Chargaff's rule to these bases:
R + S + T = X + Y + Z
= 1:1
Thus, the nucleic acid will contain six base pairs where bonds are formed between RX, SY and TZ.

Answer:
the mutation they are talking about deals with genes/dna
Explanation:
they show one person (j) who does not have the mutation and therefore does not have the syndrome h
then they show person (k) who has a mutation and therefore had syndrome h
look carefully at the letters on the lines. they represent the DNA in people and correlate to each other
(I hope this helped a little bit and I may he completely wrong but I think I'm mostly right)
