Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A strand of DNA has the following base sequence. ACG-GTA-AGC. What would be the complementary mRNA strand?
A
TGC-CAT-TCG
B
ACG-GUA-AGC
C
UGC-CAU-UCG
D
ACG-GTA-AGC
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Complementary Sequence: Since DNA has two strands, every DNA sequence has a complementary sequence running parallel. In the complementary sequence, Adenine (A) is always paired with Thymine (T), and Cytosine (C) is always paired with Guanine (G).

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: If one strand of DNA has the base sequence ATCGTA the complementary strand would be TAGCAT as A and T pair and C and G pair.
