Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Correct answer is (c) One strand runs in 5' → 3' and other in 3' → 5' direction

Q. Antiparallel relationship of the two strands of $D N A$ refers to the -

Strands being the opposite of parallel - they are twisted

Strands providing alternate branching

One strand runs in $5^{'} \to 3^{'}$ and other in $3^{'} \to 5^{'}$ direction

Both strands run in $5^{'} \to 3^{'}$ direction

Correct answer is (c) One strand runs in $5^{'} \to 3^{'}$ and other in $3^{'} \to 5^{'}$ direction
