The base-pairing rule describes how the nitrogen bases pair with one another.

Explanation:

For DNA replication, the base-pairing rule states that adenine always pairs with thymine, and cytosine always pairs with guanine.

For transcription from DNA to mRNA, the base-pairing rule states that adenine in DNA always pairs with uracil in mRNA, and cytosine always pairs with guanine.
