Solution
The correct option is
D
The pitch is 34 A
°
containing 10 base pairs.
Watson-Crick model of DNA structure is the B type DNA. It suggested that:
DNA is a double stranded helical structure.
The two strands of DNA are anti-parallel.
The two strands are complementary to each other i.e., A pairs with T and G pairs with C.
The full turn of helical strand (pitch) is 34 A
°
containing 10 base pairs.
