Question

A strand of DNA has 22% adenine. List the percentages of guanine, thymine, and cytosine.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Adenine = 22%

Thymine = 22%

Guanine = 28%

Cytosine = 28%

Explanation:

Data

Adenine = 22 %

Cytosine = ?

Guanine = ?

Thymine = ?

Process

                Adenine is attached to Thymine so if Adenine = 22% ,

                Thymine = 22%

                Adenine + Thymine = 22 + 22 = 44%

                 Guanine + Cytosine = 100 - 44

                 Guanine ´Cytosine = 56 %

                 Guanine = 28%

                 Cytosine = 28%
