Q15.98P
Question
Write the sequence of the complementary DNA strand that pairs with each of the following DNA base sequences:
(a) TTAGCC
(b) AGACAT
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
- The complementary DNA strand is AATCGG, which matches the TTAGCC DNA base sequence.
- The complementary DNA strand is TCTGTA, which matches the AGACAT DNA base sequence.
1Step 1:(a) DNA base sequence of TTAGCC
Each base is partnered with the same partner at all times. As a result, the complement of one chain's base sequence equals the complement of the other chain's base sequence.
AATCGG is the complementary DNA strand that matches with the TTAGCC DNA base sequence.
2Step2:(b) DNA base sequence of AGACAT
TCTGTA is the complementary DNA strand that matches with the AGACAT DNA base sequence.
