Suppose you are studying a recently discovered alien organisms from the planet Mars. Its cells contain nucleic acids, but to your surprise, you find six nucleotides in the Martian DNA-like molecule; A, T, G, C, and 2 unusual nucleotides, xenine (X) and martiacine (M). You determine the amounts of each nucleotide in a sample from this organism, and record this information on a paper towel with the idea that you would transfer the information into your lab notebook later. Later, however, you find that you can no longer read the percentages of Gs and Cs.
