Best Answer

The nucleotide sequences in the two chains of a DNA molecule are complementary.

This means that A (adenine) in one chain always binds to T (thymine) in the other, and C (cytosine) always binds to G (guanine).

So if the sequence in one chain is:

AATCTGGA

the complementary sequence in the other chain will be:

TTAGACCT

The nucleotide sequences will always contain the 4 nitrogen bases (adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine) which may not be in the same order.
