If one strand of DNA has the sequence ATGCTTGA, the sequence in the complementary strand would be
Correct answer: D. TACGAACT
- A. TCCGAACT
- B. TACGTAGT
- C. TACGAATC
- D. TACGAACT
Explanation
To determine the complementary strand of DNA, you need to use the base-pairing rules:- Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T),- Thymine (T) pairs with Adenine (A),- Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C),- Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).Given the DNA sequence "ATGCTTGA":

About Biological Molecules
The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
