There are this tiny living things that make up other living things, which are called cells. Cells are made up of organelles and cytoplasm and when they are unicellular organisms they might contain flagellum and other parts.

→ Cells can be either eukaryotic, prokaryotic, plant-cells or animal-cells (which are both eukaryotic). The 4 images below shows you each one of them in their respective order.


NOTE - Cells have more divisions, such as epithelial, muscular, connective and nervous which are some basic tissue-cells.

In complementary base pairing, the G pairs with C, and A pairs with T. Given that this be the rule, the complementary nucleotides for your sequence would be as follows: CGATTAACGTAGGCA.

With regards to proofreading, mutations in cell division occur once in around every 100,000 base pairs. If this happens, the enzyme that pairs the nucleotides to form DNA, called DNA polymerase, detects the error and moves back along the strand, it then cuts the incorrect nucleotide and replaces it with the correct one, fixing the error and continuing with the DNA synthesis.
This process corrects the majority of errors in DNA synthesis, but some errors can still be missed by the DNA polymerase, this is then rectified by a protein complex which binds to the incorrect pairing until anther complex, comes along and cuts that particular section of DNA out, which is then replaced by a new section of correct nucleotides synthesized by the polymerase enzyme, the two sections at either end that were cut is then sealed by ligase, an enzyme which essentially "glues" the DNA stands back together.

My apologies for the long answer, I hope I answered your question and that you understand it well enough.

Osmosis equalizes – or makes the concentration of water on both sides of the egg membrane the same. This means the egg will swell as the water moves inside and get larger.
