A certain sequence motif consists of 5 nucleotide pairs. In a random sequence of double-stranded DNA in which each nucleotide is equally likely to have any of the four bases, what is the probability that any group of 5 adjacent nucleotides has the same sequence as the sequence motif?
A) (1/5) 2 = 1/25
B) (1/5) 4 = 1/625
C) (1/2) 5 = 1/32
D) (1/4) 5 = 1/1024
E) None of the answer options is correct.
