DNA Replication1) Construct the complementary strand of DNA (strand II) that would pair with the DNA strand I sequence below. Remember that nucleotides are always added in the 5 prime to 3 prime direction. The base pairing rules are:
DNA DNAadenine (A) always bonds with thymine (T) thymine (T) always bonds with adenine (A) guanine (G) always bonds with cytosine (C) cytosine (C) always bonds with guanine (G)
STRAND I: 3’ T A C T A T A G T C T G T C T C C C A C T 5’
STRAND II: 5’ 3’

A DNA molecule normally replicates itself millions of times, with almost no errors. What single fact about the structure is most responsible for this fidelity of replication?
