DNA replication occurs in 5'to 3'.The question is telling similar to earth microbe means they will also have the same nitrogenous base ATGC( purine and pyrimidine) so 5'to 3' direction complementary DNA will be 3' ATTGC 5' COMPLEMENTARY DNA SEQUENCE→5' TAACG 3' correct answer option d) 5' TAACG 3'- they just asked for the complementary DNA sequence of the mentioned sequence. incorrect answer a) 5' ATTGC 3'- this is not complementary wrong it is just repeating of the whole sequence. b) 3' UAACG 5'- they have asked the complementary DNA sequence, not the RNA so no need to take uracil instead of thymine c) 3' ATTGC 5'- this is not complementary wrong it is just repeating the whole sequence in opposite direction.
