Answer:

The DNA parental strand 5'-accg-3' can make a mRNA strand: 3'-UGGC-5'.

Step-by-step explanation:

The synthesis of messenger RNA begins with the separation of the two strands of DNA.

Only one strand of DNA serves as a template for the production of the mRNA molecule. The other tape is not transcribed. This is one of the differences between DNA duplication and RNA production. The mRNA strand that will be generated is complementary to the DNA strand that is serving as a template. Therefore, if the DNA strand that will be used as a template is 5'-ACCG-3 ', the mRNA strand that will be generated should be 3'-UGGC-5' as it must be complementary to its template.
