Answer:

During DNA replication two nucleobases form a pair.

  • Step-by-step explanation:
  • In the four-step process of DNA replication, the second step of 'Primer Binding' consists of a comparatively simple operation of the base pairing.
  • In this operation, two nucleobases bond together to form a pair with the help of hydrogen bonds.
  • According to the Chargaff's rules, during the operation of base pairing, the guanine in the strand bonds with the cytosine and the adenine in the strand bonds with the thymine.
