Replication vs Transcription If one side of the DNA strand is ATACGCATA, what is the other complementary side? ATACGCATA UAUGCGUAU TATGCGTAT AUACGCAUA

The complementary DNA strand to ATACGCATA is **TATGCGTAT**.Here's why:* **DNA Base Pairing:** DNA bases pair up in a specific way: * Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T) * Cytosine (C) always pairs with Guanine (G)* **Complementary Strand:** The complementary strand is formed by matching each base with its complementary partner. So, for the given strand ATACGCATA, the complementary strand is built as follows: A -> T T -> A A -> T C -> G G -> C C -> G A -> T T -> A A -> TThis results in the sequence TATGCGTAT. The other options provided represent RNA sequences (using Uracil instead of Thymine) or incorrect pairings.
