Question

if one strand of dna runs from 5 to 3, what direction will the corresponding strand run? 5 to 3 5 to 5 3 to 5

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

DNA strands are antiparallel, meaning if one strand runs 5' to 3', the complementary strand runs in the opposite direction, 3' to 5'. This is a fundamental property of DNA structure (base - pairing and strand orientation in the double helix).

Answer:

3' to 5' (the option with text "3' to 5'")
