Question

What is the total number of nitrogenous bases in human genome estimated?

• A. 3.5 million
• B. 35 thousand
• C. 35 million
• D. 3.1 billion

Answer 1

The correct option is D 3.1 billion

• The human genome project was a mega-project whose aim was to sequence the human genome with the help of bioinformatics.
• With the help of this project, we estimated that the human genome has 3.1 billion nitrogenous bases in its DNA.
• The nitrogenous bases are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
