Need help!!!
Match the complimentary DNA sequence to the DNA after going through DNA replication… (3pts)Before Replication After Replication Matching Choices 1) CAGTGCAT _________ a) CGGTGTCT 2) TGACTAAG ________ b) ACTGATTC 3) GCCACAGA _________ c) GTCACGTA
@mathmate maybe you know this??....
Hints: All you need to know is that Nucleotides A matches with T, and C matches with G, and vice versa. So as an example, the complementary sequence for AGACT is TCTGA.
@mathmate I have no freaking clue what any of this means
To start, I prefer a respectable vocabulary! What you said is not a good sign, because if you are attempting something that you have no clue of,it means that you need some reading before even attempting the exercise. Here's a good start: http://cyberbridge.mcb.harvard.edu/dna_1.html
I never meant to offend you. I meant it more as a joke
The site that you sent me is the same thing in my lesson. Ive read it about a million times and I still don't get it. ive tried every resource and I don't get it. Please just help me answer my question. I need to do it fast
We are talking about a DNA replication. DNA is a form of double helix. There are nucleotides (four different types, A,T, C, G) along each helix, like a winding zipper. The opposing nucleotides must be paired such that "A is opposite to T, and C is opposite to G, and vice versa". When replication occurs, the "zipper" is opened, and new neucleotides are formed between the previous helixes, but still with the opposing type. The opposing types are the complements. Try reading the question, my previous answer, then your textbook or the link again. The idea of complements are quite simple, although the actual replication process is quite complex. Don't let the complexity of the replication process scare you from answering a simple question.
