Answer:

Thymine

Explanation:

DNA nucleotide bases always attach in specific pairs.

Adenine is always with Thymine and Cytosine is always with Guanine. Here, since one nucleotide is Adenine, we know the other nucleotide is Thymine.

One way to remember this pairing is by this device:

Car in the Garage (cytosine goes with guanine)

and

Apple on the Tree (adenine goes with thymine)
