Answer: GCTTAC

Explanation: Adenine (A) always pair with thymine (T), guanine (G) always pair with cytosine (C).

So when DNA replicates, complementary strand always recognizes the bases of the template strand in this manner. DNA polymerase helps in the synthesis of two strands in pair.

If a segment of one of the DNA strands being replicated consists of CGAATG, what will be the base sequence of the corresponding DNA strand?
