Answer:

Another phrase that can be made from these initials is 'All Trees Can Grow'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine are the 4 nucleotide bases which make up the DNA along with the deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group. The Adnenine ( A) pairs with Thymine (T). The Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G). The pairing of the bases can also be remembered by thus phrase as the first two words begin with A and T which means that these two pair up. The last two words begin with C and G which means that Cytosine and Guanine pair up.
