Asingle strand of dna helix has the code cgctaa. which would be the complementary code on the other strand of the helix?
1. cgcauu
2. tatcgg
3. atagcc
4. gcgatt

The correct answer is option 4, that is, GCGATT.  

Complementary strand refers to either of the two chains, which forms a double helix of DNA, with corresponding positions on the two chains comprising of a pair of complementary bases. It is a section of one nucleic acid, which is bonded to another by an alignment of base pairs.  

In nature, complementarity refers to the base principle of DNA transcription and replication as it is a characteristic shared between the two RNA or DNA sequences, such that when they are arranged antiparallel to each other, the nucleotide bases at each position in the sequences will be complementary.  

tsd is temerature dependent sex determination.

tsd: it is a type of environmental sex determination in which the temperature experienced during embryonic/ larval development (ambient temperature for development) determine the sex of the offspring.

crocodile displays the tsd where the ambient temperature of the developing egg determines the individual's sex. for example in the american alligator's eggs, incubation at 33 ºc produces mostly males, while incubation at 30 ºc produces mostly females. so if the american alligator's egg will get the ambient temperature (33 degree celcius)during embryonic development from egg, the offspring will be male and same for the female sex determination.
