An original DNA strand has the following base sequence:

ACGTAAGCT

What base sequence would be produced through DNA replication?

The base sequence that would be produced through DNA replication would be UGCA. RNA contains three of these bases - (A),(C), and (G) but not (T). Uracil (U) is found in its place and complements adenine (A) instead. I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

Answer:

TGCATTCGA

Step-by-step explanation:

The DNA replication causes formation of complementary bases to its original nucleotide bases.

Here the available nucleotide base is

ACGTAAGCT

The complementary base pair are -

1. Cytosine (C) pair up with the guanine (G) thorough three hydrogen bonds

2. Adenine (A) can pair up with thymine (T) thorough two hydrogen bonds

Thus, for the given nucleotide bases the complementary bases are - TGCATTCGA
