Question

A single strand of DNA helix has the code ATAGGC. Which would be the complementary code on the other strand of the helix? A. AUACCG B.CGCTTA C.GCGAAT D.TATCCG

Answer 1

D. TATCCG will be its complementary strand

Answer 2

A single strand of DNA helix has the code ATAGGC.

Then TATCCG would be the complementary strand of it.

Hence the correct answer is D.

DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid.

It is the molecule that has two chains.

The chains coil with each other to form a double helix structure.

It carries genetic instructions which are used in development, growth and proper functioning of a living being.
