What else can I help you with?
What happens if you change the 9th base from adenine to cytosine in the DNA Strand?
This would be a point mutation, which may be harmless, or could be lethal, depending on the protein in which it occurred.
What letters would form the other strand of the helix?
In DNA, the other strand of the helix would have complementary base pairs to the original strand. Adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine. So, if one strand has the sequence ATTGC, the complementary strand would be TAACG.
What would the base sequences on the other strand of Dna be?
They would be described as being complementary - as in complementary base pairing.
If the strand of DNA were used what would be the complementary DNA produced?
To determine the complementary DNA strand, you would pair each base of the original DNA strand with its corresponding complementary base: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). For example, if the original strand is ATCG, the complementary strand would be TAGC. This base-pairing rule ensures that the two strands of DNA are complementary, allowing for proper replication and function.
If this CGA CT strand of DNA was used what would be the complementry DNA produced?
The complementary DNA strand to the CGA CT strand would be GCT AG. In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). Therefore, each base in the original strand is matched with its complementary base to form the new strand.
If the fourth base adenine in the original DNA strand had been Thymine what would happen to the protein molecule?
If the fourth base adenine in the original DNA strand had been replaced with thymine, then the corresponding mRNA would have an uracil instead of an adenine. This change would lead to a different amino acid being incorporated into the protein during translation, potentially resulting in a different protein being formed depending on the specific codon affected.

This would be a point mutation, which may be harmless, or could be lethal, depending on the protein in which it occurred.
What happens to a strand of DNA when there is a change in the base on the other strand?
This is called a "mutation." What ends up happening depends on where the base that changed was located. If the changed base is on the side of the DNA strand that is not used in making mRNA, there will be no difference in the final protein made whatsoever. If the mutation occurs in a part of the DNA that is not coded to make a protein (so called "junk" DNA), there will also be no change in the final protein, because there won't be a protein made. Even if the mutation occurs in a segment of DNA that eventually makes a protein, if the replacement base causes the mRNA to code for an amino acid that is similar to the original base, there will be little change. There is more to it, but that will probably suffice.
What happens to one strand of DNA when there is a change in base on the other strand?

What is the sequence of the base os agctcag on the opposite strand?
A TG CAGATTCTCTAAG
A fragment of a strand of nucleic acid isolated from a silk moth species contains the base sequence CAGACT The strand must be from?
The base sequence CAGACT corresponds to the DNA strand, and it would be complementary to the RNA strand with the sequence GUCUGA. Therefore, the original strand is the DNA strand.
What letters would form the other strand of the helix?
In DNA, the other strand of the helix would have complementary base pairs to the original strand. Adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine. So, if one strand has the sequence ATTGC, the complementary strand would be TAACG.
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 is the importance of the base pairing in DNA?
A mismatched base would mean a mutation of the genetic code for the RNA strand. The wrong amino acid would be produced and then the wrong protein. This would result in a defect or maybe a disease or death depending on how many other normal cells are present.
