Since A pairs with T, and G pairs with C, then the sequence of bases in the strand of DNA being copied determines the sequence of bases in the newly copied strand. The bases are complementary (A gives T and G gives C when copied).

When a new DNA is formed , two strands of old DNA open and act as a template for synthesis of two new strands of DNA .Sequence of bases in new strand of DNA is determined by old strand and it is based on complementarity i.e. A pairs with T and G Pairs with C .

Complementary dna sequence?

A complimentary DNA sequence is the genetic code on the partner strand that aligns with and corresponds to (matches) the code on the primary strand. Each nucleotide has a match, A matches T and C matches G, therefore the complimentary sequence for ATCGA is TAGCT.

What is the relationship of the two DNA strands to each other?

The two strands in a DNA molecule (the polynucleotides) are complementary to each other. This means that the base sequence in one strand determines the base sequence in the other strand. This happens because of specific base pairing. An adenine in one strand always pairs with a thymine in the other strand, and a cytosine in one strand always pairs with a guanine in the other strand. So if you know the base sequence in one strand of the DNA yoiu can work out the sequence in the complementary strand. See: http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/biocoach/dnarep/basepair.htmlDNA strands run anti-parallel from one another, and have a double helix structure. The strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between base pairs that are weak individually, but collectively strong.
