Consider the given two statements:
| Statement I: | In a double stranded DNA molecule, the amount of Guanine should be equal to Cytosine and the amount of Adenine should be equal to Thymine. |
| Statement II: | There are two hydrogen bonds between Adenine and Thymine and three hydrogen bonds between Guanine and Cytosine. |
| 1. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II correctly explains Statement I |
| 2. | Both Statement I and Statement II are correct but Statement II does not correctly explain Statement I |
| 3. | Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect |
| 4. | Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct |

Suppose you are provided with an actively dividing culture of E. coli bacteria to which radioactive thymine has been added. What would happen if a cell replicates once in the presence of this radioactive base?
1. One of the daughter cells, but not the other, would have radioactive DNA.
2. Neither of the two daughter cells would be radioactive.
3. All four bases of the DNA would be radioactive.
4. DNA in both daughter cells would be radioactive.
