When Watson and Crick were first proposing their model for DNA, they thought thatthe nitrogenous bases paired like with like (ie adenine with adenine). This turned outnot to be feasible becauseit would cause all base pairing to be the same in length.the identical structure of the bases would not allow hydrogen bonding between them.the sequence of bases in the molecules would be affected.All of the above are correct.
