Question

Given the sequence of DNA nucleotide bases TAGTAGTAG, give the complementary strand of mRNA produced during transcription.

A) AAGGUAGUA
B) AAUCGGAAC
C) AUCAUCAUC
D) GAGGAGGAG

Answer 1

T=A

A=U

G=C

so the answer is (C)

Answer 2

C) AUCAUCAUC

Step-by-step explanation:

The genetic information which is stored in DNA is transcribed into a complementary strand of mRNA during protein synthesis. This is called transcription. In this process, the DNA nucleotide bases transcribed the complementary bases of mRNA. In the given question, the sequence of DNA nucleotide bases is TAGTAGTAG which will be transcribed on mRNA complementary bases as AUCAUCAUC as A pairs with U and G pairs with C in mRNA.
