Answer:

TAGTC

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four different nucleotides in DNA: adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine.

The bases pair like so:

A with T (adenine with thymine)

C with G (cytosine with guanine)

The DNA sequence given is :

ATCAG

Match As with Ts, Ts with As, Cs with Gs and Gs with Cs.

The sequence of nucleotides that would bond with the sequence above is:
