Why is Tm related to base composition? (Hint: Tm refers to temperature of melting)
a. The fewer hydrogen bonds between bases, the higher the temperature needed to separate the pair.
b The more hydrogen bonds between bases, the higher the temperature needed to separate the pair.
c. Neither, Tm is related to UV light absorption
d. Neither, Tm is related to the number of phosphate groups present in a double stranded DNA molecule.
