OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean abt d unusual base pair between adenine nd guanine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its at the CCA end

YOU MUST NOTE THAT NO SUCH PAIR (ADENINE AND GUANINE) EXIST...IT WOULDNT BE ABLE TO FIT INTO THE STRAND..YOU DO KNO THAT BOTH OF THIS NITROGEN-CONTAININGG BASES ARE PURINES(DOUBLE RING BASE)...THEY CANNOT FIT, IT WOULD BE TO WIDE, NEITHER CAN THYMINE AND CYTOSINE FIT, IT WOULD BE TOO NARROW...THE BASE PAIR THAT EXIST IN THE T-RNA ARE U WITH A AND G WITH C...RNAS DONT USE THYMINE, DNA DOES THAT. INSTEAD THEY MAKE USE OF URACIL..AGAIN WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU SPEAK OF?
