the following gene sequence appear on one strand of a segment of DNA that is about to go through DNA replication. what code will DNA polymerase build to make the complimentary strand .TACGGCATATGCAAATGGCGAGCCTATATT

Answer

• ATGCCGTATACGTTTACCGCTCGGATATAA – Complimentary strand
  Explanation:
  TACGGCATATGCAAATGGCGAGCCTATATT – DNA template strand
  ATGCCGTATACGTTTACCGCTCGGATATAA – Complimentary strand
  During replication, DNA polymerase reads through the template strand adding complimentary bases on the growing strand
  Base pairing in replication is as follows
  Adenine pairs with Thymine
  Guanine pairs with Cytosine
  This process takes place inside the nucleus and proceeds in 5′-3′ direction
