Chargaff's rule states that in the DNA of an organism, the amount of adenine (A) is equal to the amount of thymine (T), and the amount of cytosine (C) is equal to the amount of guanine (G). This complementary base pairing is crucial for the structure of DNA and its replication. Specifically, A pairs with T and C pairs with G, contributing to the double helical structure of DNA. Chargaff's observations were fundamental in understanding the molecular basis of heredity.
