Which of these models of a DNA strand shows bases that are complementary to the ones on the student's DNA model?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking which DNA strand model displays bases that are complementary to those on a student's DNA model. To solve this, we need to identify the base pairing rules for DNA (A with T, C with G) and compare the options provided.
Answer
A
The final answer is A.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is A.
More Information
In DNA, adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine. Model A with bases C, T, A, C, G, A pairs with G, A, T, G, C, T respectively, making it the complementary strand.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing RNA base pairing with DNA base pairing. Remember that in DNA, adenine pairs with thymine, not uracil.
