Guanine matches to what in complementary pairing?
Cytosine.
How are base pairing rules and complementary base pairs related?
Base pairing rules and complementary base rules are related because of DNA. If one can find the base pairing on a strand of DNA, usually the complementary base is easily found.
What is the process in which DNA is separated into two strands then produces two new complementary strands following the rules of base pairing?
DNA replication
What would the base sequences on the other strand of Dna be?
They would be described as being complementary - as in complementary base pairing.
Why is complementary base pairing crucial to replication?
i think it because the DNA replicates
What structural feature helps DNA replicate?
complementary pairing of nitrogenous bases
