Question

if you know you have 32% adenine you can figure out the percent of cytosine?
please hurry

Answer 1

Answer: 18%

Explanation:

Use Chargaff's rules which states that 100% is total of all 4 bases and Adenine and Thymine need to have 1:1 ratio and Cytosine and Guanine need to have 1:1 ratio

32% Adenine = 32% Thymine

32 + 32 = 64 100 - 64 = 36 36/2 = 18

18% of Cytosine and 18% of Guanine
