Answer:

There are four different bases, each of which pairs with only another. Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T), and Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C). This rule is universal to all DNA. A good way to remember is apples in the tree (adenine and thymine), cars in the garage (cytosine and guanine) (credit to the Amoeba Sisters)
