- A 500
- B 750
- C 1000
- D 2000
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 2000
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Total bases \( = 2 \times \text{Total base pairs} = 2 \times 2500 = 5000 \) Number of Adenine (A) bases \( = 500 \) Number of Thymine (T) bases \( = \text{Number of A} = 500 \) Number of Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C) bases…
