### Gene Sequencing Results Interpretation

#### Sequencing Results Diagram
The image shows a typical gene sequencing output using the Sanger method. There is a labeled grid with columns under four bases: Adenine (A), Guanine (G), Cytosine (C), and Thymine (T). There are also marks representing the presence of specific nucleotide bases at various positions within these columns. Here's a detailed explanation of the diagram:

- **Four Columns (Labeled A, G, C, T):**
  - Each column represents one of the four nucleotide bases found in DNA.
  - Letters within these columns indicate the presence of that nucleotide base in the sequence.

- **Marks/Lines:**
  - These marks indicate where the corresponding nucleotide appears in the sequence being read.
  - Below is the sequence reading from bottom (smallest fragments closest to the well) to top (largest fragments farthest from the well):

  - **A Column:**
    - Two marks are present, indicating A bases at the respective positions.
  - **G Column:**
    - Two marks are present, indicating G bases at the respective positions.
  - **C Column:**
    - Two marks are present, indicating C bases at the respective positions.
  - **T Column:**
    - Two marks are present, indicating T bases at the respective positions.

#### Question and Answer
**Question 14:** Based on the sequencing results above, what is the sequence of nucleotides as they were added by DNA polymerase to the DNA template?

**Answer Choices:**
a. ATC-GCA-GTA  
b. TAG-TGC-CAT  
c. TAC-TGC-GAT  
d. TAG-CGT-CAT

**Correct Answer:**
The correct answer is **c. TAC-TGC-GAT**.

This sequence is determined by reading the marks from the bottom to the top of the sequencing gel, corresponding to the progression of the synthesis process.
