Which sequence of DNA bases would pair with this partial strandATG TGA CAG
|
|
ATG TGA CAG
|
|
|
TAC ACT GTC
|
|
|
GTA AGT GAC

|
|
CAT TCA CTG

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Answer. Answer: which sequence of DNA bases would pair with this partial strand: ATG TGA CAG? (G) pairs with cytosine(C) and vice versa.
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: -A always pairs with T with two hydrogen bonds and G always pairs with C with three hydrogen bonds. So if one strand is ATGCTTGA then the complementary strand will be TACGAACT.
Detailed explanation-4: -Therefore, the complementary sequence for GCATGACAT will be CGTACTGTA.
