Chapter 22: Problem 105

Part of a certain DNA sequence is G-G-T-C-T-A-T-A-C. What is the complementary sequence?

Short Answer

Expert verified
The complementary DNA sequence for the given sequence G-G-T-C-T-A-T-A-C is C-C-A-G-A-T-A-T-G.

Step by step solution

01

Identify the given DNA sequence

The given DNA sequence is G-G-T-C-T-A-T-A-C.
02

Find the complementary bases for each base in the given sequence

According to the base pairing rules, the complementary bases are as follows: - G pairs with C - T pairs with A - C pairs with G - A pairs with T
03

Write down the complementary sequence

Using the base pairing rules from Step 2, we can now find the complementary DNA sequence for the given sequence: Original Sequence: G-G-T-C-T-A-T-A-C Complementary Sequence: C-C-A-G-A-T-A-T-G So the complementary DNA sequence is C-C-A-G-A-T-A-T-G.

A chemical "breathalyzer" test works because ethanol in the breath is oxidized by the dichromate ion (orange) to form acetic acid and chromium(III) ion (green). The balanced reaction is \(3 \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}(a q)+2 \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}{ }^{2-}(a q)+2 \mathrm{H}^{+}(a q) \longrightarrow\) \(3 \mathrm{HC}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{O}_{2}(a q)+4 \mathrm{Cr}^{3+}(a q)+11 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)\) You analyze a breathalyzer test in which \(4.2 \mathrm{mg} \mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}\) was reduced. Assuming the volume of the breath was \(0.500 \mathrm{~L}\) at \(30 .{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(750 . \mathrm{mm} \mathrm{Hg}\), what was the mole percent alcohol of the breath?
