Question

a strand of dna contains the bases adenine, cytosine, cytosine, and guanine, in that order. which would be the order of the bases on the opposite strand of dna?
o cytosine, adenine, adenine, and thymine
o cytosine, thymine, thymine, and adenine
o thymine, guanine, guanine, and cytosine
o thymine, adenine, adenine, and cytosine

Explanation:

In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). Given the bases adenine, cytosine, cytosine, guanine on one strand, the complementary bases on the opposite strand will be thymine, guanine, guanine, cytosine respectively.

Answer:

thymine, guanine, guanine, and cytosine
