Answer:

The DNA is a double stranded nucleotide. The DNA is consisted of deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogenous bases such as adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.

The adenine always base pairs with thymine, so whatever the percentage of an adenine in a DNA strand is, always the same with thymine. Same thing with Guanine as it always base pairs with Cytosine.

A = T

G = C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the cow as an example.

If its adenine content is 28%, it has also 28% thymine content. 28 + 28 = 56% So, the remaining percentage is G and C, which is 44%. The 44% will be consisted of 22% guanine and 22% cytosine, making it 100%.
