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


If the sequence of bases in one DNA strand is TAG then the sequence of bases in the other strand will be?

The corresponding mRNA strand would be AUCG.


What would be the complimentary sequence of bases produced by a DNA strand with bases CTGCCA?

The sequence would be GACGGT


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.


If the base sequence on one DNA strand is ATGGCCTAG what is the sequence on the strand of the helix?

The sequence on the strand of the helix is TACCGGATC.


What order of bases on mRNA will match a sequence on tRNA of UUA?

If the tRNA has the sequence UUA, then the mRNA it reads from will have the sequence complementary to UUA, which is AAU. RNA uses the nucleic acid uracil instead of the DNA counterpart, thymine.


By convention the sequence of bases in a nucleic acid is always written in which direction?

From left to right.


Which sequence of RNA bases with pair up with a strand of DNA bases that reads TACTGCA?

it would read: atgacgt


If the sequence of nucleotides of one strand of the two strands of DNA was known is it possible to use that information to determine the sequence of the second strand?

Yes because the bases pair uniquely when the strands are joined together.


If the sequence of bases in one strand C-A-A-G-T what is the sequence of bases on the matching strand?

the complimentary styrand would be: T-C-C-G-A-T


How many bases on a strand of mRNA code for one amino acid?

3 nucleotides


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
