If complementary DNA strands were arranged in a parallel manner, what would you expect to see?
◦ Complementary nucleotides would be attracted to each other, forming ionic bonds that would make the helix stable but not uniform in width.
◦ Some regions of the two strands may form atypical hydrogen bonds, but the overall structure of the two DNA strands would not be stable.
◦ Complementary nucleotides would line up normally; but fewer hydrogen bonds would form, so the strands could be more easily pulled apart.
◦ The phosphodiester backbones would be too close and repel one another.
◦ There would be no discernable difference between DNA strands aligned in a parallel versus an antiparallel manner.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
