If one strand of DNADNA has sequence ATCGTATGATCGTATG, the sequence in the complementary strand would beIf one strand of DNA has sequence ATCGTATG , the sequence in the complementary strand would be

Options

  1. ATAGCTTACTAGCTTAC
  2. BTCACATACTCACATAC
  3. CTAGCATACTAGCATAC
  4. DTACGATACTACGATAC

Correct answer

C. TAGCATACTAGCATAC

Step-by-step solution

Due to size and geometries of bases, the only possible pairing in DNADNA are between GG (guanine)andCand C (cytosine) through three HH-bonds and between AA (adenine)andTand T (thymine) through two HH-bonds.

Thus, the complementary strand of DNADNA will be

If one strand of DNA has sequence ATCGTATG , the sequence in the complementary strand would be
