Explanation:In dsDNA the bases in the two strands are paired through hydrogen bonds forming base pairs (bp). Adenine forms two H-bonds with thymine from opposite strand and vice-versa. Similarly, guanine is bonded with cytosine with three H-bonds. As a result, always a purine comes opposite to a pyrimidine.A - T   &   G - C

D). T with A, and C with GExplanation: DNA is a nucleic acid found in the nucleus of a cell. It contains all the genetic information of the cell. Nucleic acids are made up of three parts: the nitrogenous base, the ribose sugar and phosphate group. DNA contains deoxyribose sugar. The bases found in nucleic acids are of two types: the pyrimidine and purine bases. The pyrimidine bases are Cytosine, Thymine and Uracil. The purine bases are Adenine and Guanine. In DNA, only two pyrimidine bases can be found: Cytosine and Thymine. In DNA base pairing, Thymine (T) pairs with Adenine (A) while Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).

The correct answer would be A.T with A, and C with GIt can be explained with the help of complementary base pairing.In DNA,  thymine (T) always forms a base pair with adenine (A) and cytosine (C) always base pairs with guanine (G) .There are two hydrogen bonds present in between A and T and three hydrogen bonds in between G and C.
