28. Question

One DNA of B-type, is 204nm in length, it contains 250 Adenine bases. Find the number of
Cytosine in this type.

250

300

350

400

Incorrect

1 turn of B form DNA has a length of 3.4nm

So, 204nm contains, 204/3.4= 60 turns,
1 turn has 10 base pairs,
Thus, 60 turns contain 60 X 10 = 600 base pairs
= 1200 bases.
According to complementary rule, A=T, G=C,
This implies, A+T= 250X2= 500,
G+C, or, 2C= 1200 500 = 700,
Or, C= 700/2= 350.
