Give the complementaru DNA strand for the following: ATC GCT AAT

Question

A: TAG CGA TTA

B: GCT ATC GGC

C: ATC GCT AAT

D: UAG CGA UUA

Answer 1

The complementary DNA strand is formed by pairing each base with its complement: Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T), and Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).

For the given DNA strand ATC GCT AAT, the complementary strand can be determined as follows:

• A → T
• T → A
• C → G
• G → C
• C → G
• T → A
• A → T
• A → T
• T → A

So, the complementary strand is TAG CGA TTA, which corresponds to option A.
