The correct base pairing for DNA is:
A. adenine → thymine and guanine → cytosine ✅✅

You can use this to remember 👇:
A ↔ T (both have straight lines)
G ↔ C (both have curves)
And guess what? These base pairs are held together by 𝙝𝙮𝙙𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙣 𝙗𝙤𝙣𝙙𝙨:

✔️ A and T have 2 hydrogen bonds (not too clingy)
✔️ G and C have 3 hydrogen bonds (super tight bond!)
