Examine the sequence of bases below. T T A G C A T G G C Identify the complementary strand of DNA for the sequence of bases.

1) TTAGCATGGC

2) AATCGTACCG

3) ATAGCUTCCG

4) CCGATGCAAT

Verified Answer :

the answer  is 2)  
 
because A pairs with T 
and G pairs with C

Answer:

The correct answer is 2) AATCGTACCG

Explanation:

In DNA there are four different bases i.e., adenine(A), guanine(G), cytosine(C) and thymine(T). Base pairing rules says that A will pair with T, T with A, G with C and C with G.

So according to this rule the complementary strand of the sequence TTAGCATGGC will be AATCGTACCG.
