Answer:

95 isoadenine bases;  adenine bases cannot be determined

Explanation:

In Alien DNA;

  • iA  complementary with U
  • iT  complementary with A
  • bG complementary with iC
  1. So if there were 95 nucleotide that contain the uracil then there should also be 95 isoadenine.
  2. Adenine binds with isothymine in alien DNA and there are no information of  isothymine or other bG/iC bases is given, so we cannot determine the adenine bases.
