Why is it important that both copies of the DNA molecule have the exact same sequence of nucleotides as the original DNA molecule?

The complimentary pairing of the two strands of DNA with their nitrogen-containing bases allows them to make exact copies. Each one matches up with another exactly to make the "blue print" of the cell.

∙ 13y agoThe process of replication ensure that the mRNA which copy the nuclei acid sequence of the parent DNA strand use complementary bases, which then ensure that each strand of the two have the correct complement attached to the original. Example, a strand of AGT will split into DNA with one side having the AGT and one with the TCA nuclei acids. Then the mRNA will come and place TCA on the AGT and vice versa.

What is ATTGC?
this sequence of nucleotides represents one side of a doublestranded DNA molecule. what is correct sequence for the opposite side of ATTGC
If the sequence of nucleotides on one strand of a DNA molecule is gccattg the sequence on the complementry strand is?
G=C, G=C, T=A, A= T So, to answer the question: CGGTAAC
The order of bases in a molecule of mRNA is determined by the sequence?
The base sequence of mRnas is 'determined by the base sequence of nucleotides in Dna.' The base sequence is transformed into information via the triplet codons of The Genetic Code.
The kind of protiens produced in a cell are related to the?
sequence of nucleotides in the DNA
How does the sequence of DNA affect the function of a protein?
The sequence of nucleotides in DNA molecule is equivalent and is closely related to an amino acid sequence in the protein molecule. If for any reason the sequence of DNA nucleotides changes it will be reflected in amino acid sequence in the protein. Moreover, the correct sequence of amino acid in the protein will form the correct three-dimensional structure, or tertiary structure, that will confer the biological activity to protein. If a wrong amino acid is translated from a mutated gene in the DNA could change the spatial structure of the protein and therefore modify or erase its biological function.
A molecule that cuts DNA molecules at a specific sequence of nucleotides?
A restriction enzyme
DNA carries genetic information in its?
the order of the nucleotides in the molecule
What is ATTGC?
this sequence of nucleotides represents one side of a doublestranded DNA molecule. what is correct sequence for the opposite side of ATTGC
What has molecule?
The type of molecule that has codons are nucleic acids. A codon refers to a sequence of three nucleotides that form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule.
What is a genome and why is it so important?
A genome is the sequence of all nucleotides in an order.
If the sequence of nucleotides on one strand of a DNA molecule is gccattg the sequence on the complementry strand is?
G=C, G=C, T=A, A= T So, to answer the question: CGGTAAC

The sequence of what carries genetic information as an organism?
nucleotides

How is a gene related to the sequence of nucleotides?
Genes are segments of DNA. DNA is made up of polymer of nucleotides joined together. When there is an alteration in the sequence of nucleotides, gene mutation occurs.
A gene is a code of what?
the sequence of nucleotides
