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>

Describe the structure of a neuron and explain the function of each of its major parts.
Gwar [14]
A neuron is a nervous system cell specialized in the communication and information processing between the nervous system and the various organs. It is present under different structures (multipolar, unipolar, bipolar ...).It consists of three main parts:
*A cell body also called soma, it is composed of the cytoplasm and the nucleus of the cell that contains the DNA to encode the proteins necessary for the function of the neuron.
*Tree extensions that are also called dendrites, its role is to receive information.
*A single axon with the ability to route information to other cells.

The complicated molecules that make up living things usually contain carbon. Why is carbon so important in this molescules?
Alexxandr [17]
Answer and explanation;
Carbon is so important in the formation of complicated molecules in that;
-Carbon can form up to four  covalent bonds, and it can form reasonably strong bonds with nitrogen, oxygen, and other different types of atoms.
-Carbon also has an almost unique ability to form long chains with <span>C−C</span> linkages, and along the chain there can be regions of different reactivity.<span> 
Also </span><span>C−C</span><span> bond is unaffected by water, and therefore, if for example a cell, can be isolated from the aqueous medium.</span>
