Detailed explanation-1: -Solution : (c) Adenine always pairs with thymine and cytosine always pairs with guanine. Thus, sequence of bases on complementary strand would be TACGTACGT.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA base pair. Under normal circumstances, the nitrogen-containing bases adenine (A) and thymine (T) pair together, and cytosine (C) and guanine (G) pair together.
Detailed explanation-3: -The sequence of the mentioned DNA strand is 5’-ATCAGC-3’. So, the sequence of the complementary strand will be 3’-TAGTCG-5’.
Detailed explanation-4: -A strand of DNA with the sequence AACTTG will have a complimentary strand with the sequence. Explanation: There are four nitrogenous bases. They help in relation of one of the strand of the DNA with the others strand.
