Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Below is a short strand of mRNA.CGGUAU (What segment of DNA coded for it?)
A
GCC AUT
B
GCC ATA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -One strand of the given DNA segment codes for mRNA having the sequence AUC GCG UCA for the synthesis of protein.

Detailed explanation-2: -The coding strand determines the correct nucleotide sequence of mRNA. The template strand acts as a base for mRNA transcription. It is also known as sense strand (plus strand) or coding strand. It is the antisense strand (minus strand) or a non-coding strand.

Detailed explanation-3: -Template strand is the DNA strand off which the mRNA is synthesized.
