https://joechem.io/videos/184 for video on jOeCHEM and attached worksheet + solution (below video on jOeCHEM aka the link) To round out our biological journey in organic chemistry, we'll explore why the four nitrogenous bases "pair" the way they do. In DNA, Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C) and Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T). In RNA, G still pairs with C but A pairs with U (uracil, which is SUPER close to T in structure). They buddy up the way they do because of H-bonding, and in this video we'll discuss and illustrate why that is the case.
