Compliment bases just means that guanine always pairs to cytosine, while adenine always pairs to thymine. These are collectively referred to as nucleotides. They are important because these four bases are the components of DNA. Their chemical interaction is what causes DNA to form a double helix structure.
minor correction: nucleic bases (A,T,C,G) aren't nucleotides, only a part of them. |dw:1374007845835:dw|
