What is the complementary strandof bases for a strand with the bases TACGTT?

If TACGTT is read 5'-TACGTT-3' then the complimentary strand will read 5'-AACGTA-3'. Since the template strand is traditionally written in the 5' to 3' direction then the complimentary strand, written in the same manner, would be AACGTA not ATGCAA. The four bases, adenine(A), thyamine(T), cytosin(C), and guanine(G) bond together in pairs. A - T, and C - G. They do not pair with any other base unless in the case of RNA, when thyamine is replaced with uracil.

How many bases does a double helix have after the complementary strand is added?
double the amount of bases (or x2)
What is a characteristic of nucleic acids in which the sequence of bases on one strand is paired to the sequence of bases on the other?
Complementary Base- pairs
What would be the complimentary bases for a.t.c.g.c.a.t.t. for a dna strand?
A binds with T, G binds with C.Therefore the complementary strand for ATCGCATT would be TAGCGTAA.
How would the bases of the complementary strand read?
The complementary sequence of a DNA strand is written with the beginning letters of the bases: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). You would replace each letter with its complementary nucleotide. Replace: A for T T for A C for G G for C
What does complementary bases in the structure of DNA mean?
The structure of DNA relies on a base-pairing rule. This means that in DNA, Adenine binds to Thymine and Guanine binds to Cytosine. The complementary base is the base that binds to the base in question. Therefore A is complementary to T, C is complementary to G, etc. So if you had a strand of DNA, for example; ATT-CCA-GTC The complementary strand (which would bind to the above) would be; TAA-GGT-CAG

A segment of DNA has the following sequence TTAAGGCC. Which sequence of bases would be found on the complementary strand of mRNA?
The complimentary strand of MRNA would be AAUUCCGG.

What sequence of bases would be complementary to A-G-C-T-A?
DNA:T-C-G-A-TmRNA:U-C-G-A-UmRNA rule: switch T with U_________________________________________Although the above answer is correct in that there are no thymines (T) in RNA, I must disagree with the rest of the answer. The mRNA strand given in the answer above would be the identical strand made from RNA, not the complementary strand as the question asked for.A complementary strand is produced by an RNA or DNA polymerase from a template DNA strand.Therefore, if the template DNA strand were T-C-G-A-T, then:The complementary DNA strand would be A-G-C-T-AThe complementary RNA strand would be A-G-C-U-A
How does DNA copy of itself?
DNA makes copies of itself through the process of replication. Because the nucleotide bases are complementary, they automatically make the other strand of complementary bases when the division of the cell occurs.

lol i hate this question........its in meh science book

TGCA
What is the order of bases on the complementary side of the strand B from left to right?
AAACCCGTT I have an assignment for this SO I am 90% sure, but I know it's right.
