The DNA helix makes one complete spiral turn every 3.4 nm and has a diameter of 2 nm. The distance between adjacent stacks is 0.34 nm.

Q. Select the option with correct dimensions of A, B and C in the given below double helical structure of DNA proposed by Watson and Crick.

$A - 3.4 nm, B - 0.34 nm, C - 2 nm$

$A - 34 nm, B - 3.4 nm, C - 20 nm$

$A - 3.4 Å, B - 034 Å. C - 20 Å$

$A - 34 Å, B - 3.4 Å, C - 2 Å$
