They would be described as being complementary - as in complementary base pairing.
You can predict the base seqences of a DNA molecule if you know what one strand is, because of double Stranded DNA. Each strand matches up with a letter and repeats a pattern throught the entire DNA strand.
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.
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
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'.

Very accurate to the base pair. The quality of the specimen matters as DNA can degrade. Short strand sequences (10-12 base pairs) can still be determined by PCR from one strand of hair.

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 two strands in a DNA molecule (the polynucleotides) are complementary to each other. This means that the base sequence in one strand determines the base sequence in the other strand. This happens because of specific base pairing. An adenine in one strand always pairs with a thymine in the other strand, and a cytosine in one strand always pairs with a guanine in the other strand. So if you know the base sequence in one strand of the DNA yoiu can work out the sequence in the complementary strand. See: http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/biocoach/dnarep/basepair.htmlDNA strands run anti-parallel from one another, and have a double helix structure. The strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between base pairs that are weak individually, but collectively strong.
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.
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
The complementary strand of DNA is a strand that matches the sequence of the original DNA strand through base pairing rules. Adenine pairs with thymine (A-T) and cytosine pairs with guanine (C-G). This results in two DNA strands with complementary sequences that can be used for replication and transcription.
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.
