base pair

• The base that pairs with Thymine in DNA, Uracil in RNA.
• In a nucleic-acid chain, a subunit that consists of a sugar phosphate and nitrogenous base.
• A pair of complementary nitrogenous bases in a DNA molecule.
• Woman who generated x-ray images of DNA, she provided Watson and Crick with key data about DNA.

Base

• DNA mutation in which one or more pairs of nucleotides are removed from a gene.
• (RNA) A single-stranded nucleic acid that contains the sugar ribose and Uracil.
• An enzyme that connects the fragments of DNA to close the gaps.
• adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine
