While analysing the DNA of an organism a total number of 5386 nucleotides were found out of which the proportion of different bases were
Adenine = 29%, Guanine = 17%, Cytosine = 32%, Thymine = 17% Considering Chargaff’s rule it can be concluded that
(a) It is a double stranded circular DNA
(b) It is single stranded DNA

Correct answer: (b) It is single stranded DNA
Explanation:
In the DNA of an organism a total number of 5386 nucleotides were found out of which the proportion of different bases were:
Adenine = 29%, Guanine = 17%, Cytosine = 32%, Thymine = 17%. Considering the Chargaff’s rule it can be concluded that it is a single stranded DNA.
