Solution

The correct option is A Chargaff’s rule
Chargaff determined that in any double-stranded DNA the number of guanine units equals approximately the the number of cytosine units and the number of adenine units equals approximately the number of thymine units. mRNA is single stranded, So Chargaff's rule is not true to mRNA.
