Question

If the percent of guanine in a DNA strand is 14%. What is the percent of thymine in that DNA?

Answer 1

Answer:

20% plus 20% is 40% of adennine and thymine. From 100% DNA bases subtract 40% and you will get 60%. Then divide this by 2 and you will get 30%. 30% of guanine and 30% of cytosine, because their amounts are equal in the DNA stand.
