In a double - stranded DNA , one of the nitrogen base is adenine, whose amount is found to be always equal to the amount of

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.
