Assertion :- Complementary base pairing confers a very unique property to the DNA chains. Reason : If sequence of one strand is known then sequence in other strand can be predicted.

Which one is the complementary base of cytosine in one strand to that in other strand of DNA?

Assertion : If the sequence of bases in one strand is known then the sequence in other strand can be predicted. Reason : Both the strands of DNA are complementary of each other.

Read the below Statements about the structure of genetic material and identify the correct ones. I. Adenine and guanine are bases that have a double ring structure , cytosine, thymine and uracil are based with a single ring structure . II. An adenine nucleotide from DNA is the same as an adenine nucleotide from RNA , DNA adenine pairs with uracil and RNA adenine pairs with thymine. III. The base pairing that occurs in a double DNA helix and when RNA is synthesised during transcription follows the rule that a purine pairs with a pyrimidine. IV. The two Polynucleotides on a DNA molecule run in opposite directions so that the double helix formed has two strands that are parallel to each other.
