Which is the correct pair of complementary nitrogenous bases in dna? . a ) adenine and thymine . b ) cytosine and thymine. c ) guanine and thymine.

A ) adenine and thymine

Explanation:

DNA has two types of nitrogenous bases: purines and pyrimidines. Adenine and guanine are purines while cytosine and thymine are pyrimidines.  

A purine always pairs with a pyrimidine. Hence, adenine in DNA pairs with thymine while guanine pairs with cytosine. This is done to maintain the constant width of the double helix throughout the length.  

the generally accepted parts of modern cell theory include: all known living things are made up of one or more cells. all living cells arise from pre-existing cells by division. the cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms.
