2.    The DNA of each species has a different base composition. Find the base composition of each species, using what you know about complementary base pairing.
A.    Human DNA is approximately 20% C.

    G =    %    A =    %    T =    %

B.    In the bacteriophage ΦΧ174, the DNA is approximately 26% A.

    C =    %    G =    %    T =    %

C.    Sea urchin DNA is approximately 18% G.

 

    C =    %    A =    %    T =     %
