a DNA strand can have many different types of sequences but, T (thymine) always pairs with A (adenine) and C (cytosine) always pairs with G (guanine). think of your DNA strand as a ladder. every single ladder in exactly the same in your body. the two collunms of the DNA are the strongest parts of the whole strand. the collunms are made up of deoxyribose (sugar)(D) and a phosphate group (P)the rungs of the DNA (ladder) are the T, A, G, and C. they always pair with the same one but can be mixed up.

EX: P P

D GC D

P P

D TA D

P P

D AT D

P P

D CG D

P P

D GC D

P P

this is the DNA strand flatened out. the rungs can be in any order but have to be paired up with the same one. A & T, G & C

What must happen to a DNA molcule before RNA polymerase can make RNA?

Before RNA polymerase can make RNA, the DNA molecule must be unwound and the double helix separated to expose the sequence of nucleotides that will be used to transcribe the RNA. This process is facilitated by proteins that help open the DNA molecule for transcription.


How do different kinds of cells develop in an embryo?

Every cell contains DNA within the nucleus, containing the blueprint to build many different proteins in the cell. Different signals can cause embryonic cells to select specific parts of the DNA which can then be used to synthesize proteins, eventually building different cell types.


Which bases pair together in a DNA molcule?

Adenine pairs with thymine. and Guanine pairs with cytosine.
