Best answer

Right choice is (d) G/U

For explanation: As in DNA, the G/C base pairs contribute the greatest energetic stability to the molecule, with A/U base pairs contributing less stability than G/C, and G/U wobble base pairs contributing the least. From the RNA structures that have been solved, these base pairs and a number of additional ones have been identified.
