Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two types of base pairings in DNA are adenine (A) pairing with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) pairing with guanine (G). Therefore, the correct choices are A (adenine and thymine) and B (cytosine and guanine). Choices C and E are incorrect as they both include only one correct base pairing out of the two. Choice D is also incorrect as uracil (U) pairs with adenine (A) in RNA, not DNA.
