Answer:

GGATCGA

Explanation:

This question portrays what occurs during DNA replication in which nucleotide sequences that are complementary to the template strand are synthesized. The DNA molecule consists of two long polynucleotide chains composed of four nucleotide subunits held together by hydrogen bonds. Each of the chain is known as a DNA strand.

In the DNA, base portions are paired together in an hydrogen bonding using the complementary base pairing rule. Complementary base pairing is the phenomenon where DNA Guanine always binds to Cytosine in an hydrogen bonding while Adenine binds to Thymine in the same manner i.e. A-T, G-C. The complementary base pairing that binds nucleotide bases in DNA is responsible for the double-helical structure of the DNA.

Hence, in a DNA molecule with nucleotide sequence CCTAGCT, a complementary strand of DNA will have the nucleotide sequence GGATCGA.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Some deviations from normal homeostasis activate the positive feedback loops to control the conditions which are otherwise regulated by negative feedback mechanisms.

For example, the blood levels of respiratory gases and H+ ions are regulated by a negative feedback system via chemoreceptors. The increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas and lowered pH or lowered partial pressure of oxygen in the blood are sense by central and peripheral chemoreceptors which in turn activate the neurons of the dorsal respiratory group (DRG).

The activated DRG triggers an increased in the rate and depth of the breathing to facilitate the inhalation of more oxygen and exhalation of CO2 to restore the normal levels.  

However, hypocapnia inactivates the chemoreceptors and does not allow negative feedback to restore the normal CO2 levels in the blood.  

Under such conditions, the positive feedback loop stimulates the DRG neurons more strongly in response to the increased partial pressure of CO2 above the normal levels than when the partial pressure of oxygen falls below the normal level. These dangerously lowered oxygen levels may also cause fainting.
