Interpretation: The base sequence found on the other strand in the double helix is to be explained.
Concept introduction: Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) consists of two polynucleotide chains that coil around each other to create a double helix. The four nitrogen-containing base pairs that comprise a DNA molecule are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T).
Answer to Problem 83A
The base sequence found on the other strand in the double helix is GCTAGGT.
Explanation of Solution
The given base sequence is CGATCCA.
The bases adenine and thymine
Therefore, the double helix's base sequence on the other strand is GCTAGGT.
The base sequence found on the other strand in the double helix is GCTAGGT.
