Given below are two statements Assertion (A): Hydrolysis of DNA does not form equal number of $A$ and $T ; G$ and $C$ Reason (R): In DNA adenine forms hydrogen bonds with thymine and cytosine forms hydrogen bonds with guanine The correct answer is

• A

  Both $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{R}$ are correct and $\mathrm{R}$ is the correct explanation of $\mathrm{A}$
• B

  Both $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{R}$ are correct but $\mathrm{R}$ is not the correct explanation of $\dot{A}$
• C

  $\mathrm{A}$ is correct but $\mathrm{R}$ is incorrect
• Correct answer
  D
