To determine the base sequence on the complementary DNA strand, you need to know the base sequence of one strand. DNA is composed of four bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). The complementary base pairing rules state that A pairs with T and C pairs with G. For example, if the given strand is 5'-ATCG-3', the complementary strand would be 3'-TAGC-5'.
You can predict the base sequence of one strand of DNA if you know the sequence of the other strand because DNA strands are complementary. Adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). This complementary base pairing allows the sequence of one strand to dictate the sequence of the other, enabling accurate predictions of the base sequence.
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
The complementary base sequence of a DNA strand is formed by pairing adenine (A) with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) with guanine (G). For the template strand TTGCACG, the complementary sequence would be AACGTGC.
You can predict the base sequence of one strand of DNA if you know the sequence of the complementary strand because DNA strands are complementary and follow base-pairing rules (adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine). However, if the question implies difficulty in prediction, it may relate to factors such as DNA mutations, structural variations, or the presence of non-canonical base pairing that could complicate straightforward predictions. In typical scenarios, though, knowing one strand allows for the accurate determination of the other.

in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
A complimentary DNA sequence is the genetic code on the partner strand that aligns with and corresponds to (matches) the code on the primary strand. Each nucleotide has a match, A matches T and C matches G, therefore the complimentary sequence for ATCGA is TAGCT.
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.

TGCA
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
The sequence on the strand of the helix is TACCGGATC.
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.
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 complementary sequence to GAATGC is CTTACG. In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine, so if one strand has a guanine (G), the complementary strand will have a cytosine (C); and if one strand has an adenine (A), the complementary strand will have a thymine (T).
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.
