Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So the complementary strand of the DNA sequence GCAAT will be CGTTA.
Detailed explanation-2: -Adenine makes the double bond with thymine while guanine makes the triple bond with cytosine which means adenine and thymine are complementary base pairs and cytosine and guanine are complementary base pairs. The complementary sequence for the DNA strand 5’ ATCGAACGT 3’ is 3’ TAGCTTGCA 5’.
Detailed explanation-3: -Complementary sequence: Nucleic acid sequence of bases that can form a double-stranded structure by matching base pairs. For example, the complementary sequence to C-A-T-G (where each letter stands for one of the bases in DNA) is G-T-A-C.
