Suppose that one strand of DNA in a DNA molecule has the nucleotide sequence CAAGTTCAG. What must be the sequence of nucleotides on the other strand? Why?
The sequence of nucleotides of the other strand will be GTTCAAGTC . Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with cytosine in a DNA through complementary base pairing. Therefore will be the complementary base pairing in DNA.
Strand 1: CAAGTTCAG
Strand 2: GTTCAAGTC
