Question

(b)

Answer 1

8%

Explanation:

In a DNA molecule the no. of Adenine bases equal to that of Thymine bases

The no. of Cytosine bases equal to that of Guamine bases.

If we take no. of Thymine bases as x and no. of Cytosine bases as y,

Adenine + Thymine + Cytosine + Guamine = 100

x + x + y+y = 100

2( x+y) = 100

x+y = 50

y=42

therefore x= 50-42 = 8%
