The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of a Palindromic Sequence**: - A palindromic sequence in nucleic acids is a sequence that reads the same in both directions on complementary strands. Specifically, when one strand is read from 5' to 3', the complementary strand should read the same sequence from 3' to 5'. 2. **Analyze the Given Options**: - You are provided with four options. Each option is a sequence of nucleotides. We need to identify which of these sequences is palindromic. 3. **Check Each Option**: - **Option A**: G U U - Complementary strand would be C A A (not matching). - **Option B**: G G A T C C - Complementary strand would be C C T A G G (matches). - **Option C**: C C T A - Complementary strand would be G G A T (not matching). - **Option D**: A A T - Complementary strand would be T T A (not matching). 4. **Identify the Correct Palindromic Sequence**: - From the analysis, only **Option B (G G A T C C)** has a complementary strand (C C T A G G) that matches the definition of a palindromic sequence. 5. **Conclusion**: - The palindromic sequence identified is **Option B: G G A T C C**.
