Correct answer: B
-
Identify the nitrogenous bases and their structures/classes
The four bases given are:
- Adenine
- Cytosine
- Thymine
- Uracil
-
Recall standard facts about these bases
- Adenine is a purine base.
- Cytosine is a pyrimidine base having one amino group and one keto group.
- Thymine is a pyrimidine base having two keto groups and one methyl group.
- Uracil is a pyrimidine base having two keto groups and no methyl group.
-
Match with the usual structures in List-II
Since the actual structural formulas in List-II are not visible in the text extraction, we infer the intended matching from the known identities of the bases:
- Adenine corresponds to the purine structure
- Cytosine corresponds to the amino-keto pyrimidine
- Thymine corresponds to the methyl-substituted dioxo pyrimidine
- Uracil corresponds to the dioxo pyrimidine without methyl
Hence,
-
Check the options
This corresponds to Option B.
-
Compare with stored correct answer
- Derived answer: B
- Stored correct answer: B
They match.
