Recall the following rules for base pairing in a DNA strand (note: not in an RNA strand):

dna pairs

Use the above to complete the following table: (remember I'm asking for DNA, so there are no U's)

Template Strand Complementary Strand
AAATT a.
CGCAT b.
GGGAC c.
ACGGT d.

Answer 1

A - TTTAA
B - GCGTA
C- CCCTG
D- TGCCA

Answer 2

AAATT - TTTAA

CGCAT - GCGTA

GGGAC - CCCTG

ACGGT - TGCCA

Step-by-step explanation:

In DNA, A and T, also known as adenine and thymine pair together and G and C, also known as guanine and cytosine pair together due to the hydrogen bonds formed between the two bases.
