Which nitrogen base sequence is the partner of C–A–T–C–G–A?

Answer

C–A–T–C–G–A
B
G–T–A–G–C–T
C
T–G–C–T–A–G
D
G–C–A–T–G–T

Explanation

In DNA, cytosine pairs with guanine (C–G), and adenine pairs with thymine (A–T). Match each base in C–A–T–C–G–A to its partner: G–T–A–G–C–T. Therefore, the partner sequence is G–T–A–G–C–T, choice B.
