Base pairing between the DNA template strand and the RNA nucleotides
The mRNA sequence generated from the DNA strand tgacgca would be acugcgu. This is because mRNA is complementary to the DNA template strand, so DNA base T pairs with mRNA base A, DNA base G pairs with mRNA base C, DNA base A pairs with mRNA base U, and DNA base C pairs with mRNA base G.
There are about 3 billion nitrogen base pairs present in one strand of human DNA.
If one strand of DNA has a nucleotide base sequence of tcaggtccat, its complementary strand is agtccaggta. Adenine pairs with thymine, while guanine pairs with cytosine.
The complementary DNA strand to TAC-CGG-AGT is ATG-GCC-TCA. In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine (A-T) and cytosine pairs with guanine (C-G), so the complementary strand is created by matching these base pairs.
To accurately count the number of base pairs in a DNA strand, scientists use a technique called DNA sequencing. This process involves determining the order of the nucleotides in the DNA molecule, which allows for the precise counting of base pairs. Specialized equipment and software are used to analyze the DNA sequence and calculate the total number of base pairs present in the strand.

If one strand of DNA has a nucleotide base sequence of tcaggtccat, its complementary strand is agtccaggta. Adenine pairs with thymine, while guanine pairs with cytosine.
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.
The strand with fewer G-C base pairs is easier to denature compared to a strand with more G-C base pairs, because G-C base pairs have three hydrogen bonds, making them more stable and requiring more energy to break apart during denaturation.

The sequence on the strand of the helix is TACCGGATC.
In an RNA strand, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U).
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
If the base sequence on one strand of DNA is A-T-G-C, then the complementary strand would have the sequence T-A-C-G. In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine.
DNA acts as a template for two things: # DNA # mRNA transcripts This is possible because each nitrogenous base in one strand pairs only with one other base in the complementary strand as follows: Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T) Guanine (G) always pairs with Cytosine (C) Note: in RNA, Uracil (U) takes the place of Thymine (T), but still always pairs with Adenine (A). So, if one looks at a single strand of DNA, one can reconstruct the sequence of the complementary strand from the original strand, because each base on one strand will pair with only one base on the other. Consider this single strand of DNA: DNA acts as a template because of one fact: each nitrogenous base in one strand pairs only with one other base in the complementary strand as follows: Adenine always pairs with Thymine (or Uracil in RNA) Guanine always pairs with Cytosine So, if one looks at a single strand of DNA, one can reconstruct the sequence of the complementary strand from the original strand, because each base on one strand will pair with only one base on the other. Consider this single strand of DNA: ATTGCAT Looking at the first base, we know that A always pairs with T, and that T always pairs with A for the second base, and so on. Therefore we can reconstruct the complementary strand is: TAACGTA The mRNA transcript would be: UAACGUA This fact is important in two ways. First, when a cell needs to replicate its DNA, it uses an enzyme, DNA Polymerase, to assemble complementary strands by adding nucleotides with the appropriate matching bases along the strand. The result is two identical, complete DNA molecules. Secondly, when the cell needs to build messenger RNA for protein synthesis, it uses an enzyme called RNA Polymerase to assemble the mRNA transcript by adding RNA nucleotides with the complementary matching bases from the DNA strand. The result is an mRNA transcript which will be translated into a protein whose amino acid sequence will reflect the codon sequence of the original DNA strand.
