1. Draw the complementary strand for the following DNA
   • 5' A A T T C C G G 3'
   • 5' A A T T C C G G 3'
   • 3' T T A A G G C C 5'

2. Consider the following small section of a DNA molecule,
   • 5' A T C G G G G G G G G G G G A A G 3'

   Suppose you wish to PCR up the G G -- G region. Design 3 base primers to do so.
