Answer: The answer is 3' - 5' direction

Explanation:

Since the template strand runs in 5' - 3' direction, antiparallel nature of the DNA double helix explains that the complimentary strand (non-template strand) runs in a 3' - 5' direction

Answer:3' to 5'

Explanation:DNA consist of two strands that runs anti-parallel. the first called the leading strand and its runs from 5' to 3' orientation meaning it runs from carbon 5 to carbon 3 while the second strand is called the lagging strand or the ozazaki fragment it runs from 3' to 5' i.e from carbon 3 to carbon 5.

The two strands cannot be replicated in a row hence the need for the break into the leading that replicates towards the replication fork and lagging strand replicates towards the opposite direction.

uysha [10]

In the area of tissue and organ bio-engineering, scientist have been able to create simple tissues like cartilage. However, they are yet to accomplish in creating complex organs such as heart and lungs. There are many complications while creating heart, lungs and kidney because they have complex structure, different types of cells and also varied functions.

However, creation of windpipe is an achievement as many infections can be cured. Thus, tissue engineering is an emerging branch of science which also needs advanced technology and huge investment.
