Summary Introduction

To determine: The way by which Chargaff’s rule relates to the structure of DNA.

Concept introduction: DNA is double stranded consisting of two strands of nucleotides. The bases in one strand are complementary to the bases on the other strand. During DNA replication, the two strands of parent DNA molecule separate. The parent strands act as templates along which the DNA polymerases add up the complementary base pairs in the context of base-pairing rules.
