What is the complementary base sequence of the DNA strands of the template strand reads TTGCACG

Answer:

AACGTGC

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid composed of long polynucleotide chains made up of four types of nucleotide subunits viz: Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), and Thymine (T). Each of these chains is known as a DNA strand.

Hydrogen bonds between the base portions of the nucleotide subunits hold the chains together to form a double-helical structure that the DNA is found. The holding together of these bases in the DNA molecule follows the COMPLEMENTARY BASE PAIRING RULE, which states that an Adenine base always hydrogen bond with Thymine base (A-T) and Guanine base always hydrogen bonds with Cytosine base (G-C).

Based on this principle, in a DNA molecule with one of the strands called a template strand has sequence: TTGCACG, the complementary base sequence of this sequence on the template strand will be AACGTGC

So there are four types of nucleotides in DNA:

  1. Adenine
  2. Cytosine
  3. Guanine
  4. Thymine

And the complements are:

  1. Adenine ⇄ Thymine
  2. Cytosine ⇄ Guanine

<u>Using this information, the complementary base of TTGCACG is AACGTGC.</u>

According to the theory of plate tectonics what drives the motion of the contenients
Elanso [62]
The theory of tectonic plates explains that large convectional currents occuring in the mantle(as a result of magma) are the reasons plates,and so continents,are moved. Note movement occurs in the boundary in between the plates.

How are convection current in the mantle and in the oceans similar? How are they different?
Vanyuwa [196]

Hello,


Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Those forces are convection and gravity.


Convection describes the movement of gasses or liquids due to different temperatures. The convection currents just beneath Earth's crust flow very slowly, causing movement in the plates above them. These currents are different with the fact that they produce different plate movements. Ridge push occurs from the convection currents in the ocean. These occur at mid-ocean ridges, which are elevated higher than the rest of the ocean floor. In contrary, convection causes material in the mantle to flow. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.
