Why can you predict the base sequence of one strand in a molecule of DNA if you know the sequence of the others strand?
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
What would the base sequences on the other strand of Dna be?
They would be described as being complementary - as in complementary base pairing.
What does the base in DNA molecule pair with?
The base on one strand pair with the base on the other strand, adenine with thymine, and cytosine with guanine, they join together by hydrogen bonds. Parent
Why can you predict the base sequences and a DNA molecule of DNA if you know the sequence of the other strand?
You can predict the base seqences of a DNA molecule if you know what one strand is, because of double Stranded DNA. Each strand matches up with a letter and repeats a pattern throught the entire DNA strand.
Is Each strand in the double helix is identical to the opposite strand?
No. Each base (A, G, T, C) pair with their respective base on the opposite strand making them exact opposites of each other. A - T G - C C - G A - T T - A
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.

What is the sequence of the base os agctcag on the opposite strand?
A TG CAGATTCTCTAAG

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.
DNA strands are anti parallel -explain?
DNA strand are anti parallel because they have complementary base pair and each two strand coiled to 5'_3' and other strand is 3'_5'.
What is the base sequene of the complementary strand if the strand of DNA is attccg?
taaggc

What is adding base pairs to the strand?
Base pairing between the DNA template strand and the RNA nucleotides
