The complementary DNA strand will be :

gac tga cga tta

ctg act gct aat

In double - stranded DNA, the hydrogen bonds between the bases of one strand and the bases of the other strand maintain the 2 strands united.

One purine on one strand necessarily binds to a pyrimidine on the other strand.

A binds to T (by 2 hydrogen bonds).

G binds to C (via 3 hydrogen bonds)

The A composition of the DNA is therefore equal to the T composition, and the G composition of the DNA is equal to the C composition.

This strict correspondence (A <-> T and G <-> C) makes the two strands complementary. One is the template, the mold, the matrix of the other, and vice versa, and vice versa: this property allows the exact replication (semi-conservative replication: one strand -the mold - is preserved, one new is synthesized ("de novo") on this mold, likewise for the other strand, another mold, preserved, allowing a strand to be synthesized de novo.

How did you know which tRNA molecule would attach to the mRNA strand

alisha [4.7K]

Matching of base pair is the reason for the tRNA molecule attachment to the mRNA molecule.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The mRNA strand is the process of synthesizing, making proteins from amino acids. tRNA molecules bring the amino acids to the mRNA strand.
The tRNA molecule that will attach to the mRNA strand. The pairing of base pairs takes place as Cytosine (C) with guanine (G), and adenine (A) with uracil (U).
The molecules of tRNA match up with the amino acids then the tRNA molecules which carry their amino acids towards the mRNA strand by pairing is called translation.
The pairing of the is done by the anticodon in which the tRNA matches up with a codon on the mRNA to get the desired base pair.

Answer: B. It speeds up your heart rate to help you deal with danger.

Explanation: When you feel you are in danger, your heart rate goes up to get you ready to run, you pump out more adrenaline, and you are more alert. Also, all the other answers are just wrong. In A you would pay more attention, C is the opposite, and in D you would not need to hear when your body is resting.
