Explanation:

There are four types of nitrogenous bases in DNA

a) Adenine (A)

b) Guanine (G)

c) Cytosine (C)

d) Thymine (T)

Both the Adenine and Thymine are complimentary to each other while Guanine and Cytosine are complimentary to each other. The nucleotide are named based on the nitrogenous base in it.
