You predict nucleotide quantities in a hypothetical scenario with more than four different types of nucleotides? An alien species was discovered that has DNA comprised of 6 different bases: G binds to C; A binds to T: and X binds to Y. Approximately 16% of this alien genome is comprised of nucleotides containing C, and 22% is comprised of nucleotides containing Y. Given this information, calculate the percentage of the alien genome that is comprised of nucleotides containing G, T, A, and X.

a. % of the alien genome is comprised of G.
b. % of the alien genome is comprised of T.
c. % of the alien genome is comprised of A.
d. % of the alien genome is comprised of X.

• 16% of the alien genome is comprised of G

• 12% of the alien genome is comprised of T

• 12% of the alien genome is comprised of A

• 22% of the alien genome is comprised of X

Explanation:

As given in the question above , we see that each nucleotide is complimentary to the other nucleotide, there cannot be an excess of one than the other.

Let's say,

C — G,

Meaning that the amount of C = the amount of G

So in the occurrence of approximately 16% of C in the genome implies that there is approximately 16% composition of G (for it to bond to) as it's pair.

The same logic comes in handy to determine the amount of nucleotide X present.

If Y binds to X

And approximately 22% of nucleotide Y is present, then the same percentage complement of nucleotide X is expected to be present say 22%.

Now all of the nucleotides have to add up to 100%, so:

A + T + G + C + X + Y = 100%

A + T + (16%) + (16%) + (22%) + (22%) = 100%

A + T = 24%

Given that A – T,

and A=T

Therefore, the amount of A is 12%, and the amount of T is also 12%.
