Answer:

Well in the case of DNA replication it would be TCCATGCT

Step-by-step explanation:

For DNA strands A pairs with T and C pairs with G so the other pair always goes on the other strand to make a matching strand of DNA.

Answer:

TCCATGCT

Step-by-step explanation:

TCCATGCT nucleotide sequence will bond with DNA sequence AGGTACGA during DNA replication. It is because A is complimentary to T and vice versa & C is complimentary to G and vice versa. The complementarity is totally based on the shapes of the nucleotides which fits the need of DNA double helix formation. A binds with T with the help of 2 hydrogen bonds (A=T) while C binds with G with the help of 3 hydrogen bonds (C≡G).
