Question

If a segment of a sense strand of DNA is 5-ATGGACCAGA-3, then the resulting RNA
sequence after transcription is
(A) 5-AGACCAGGTA-3 (B) 5-UCUGGUCCAU-3
(C) 5-UACCUGGUCU-3 (D) 5-AUGGACCAGA-3

Answer 1

the answer of this question is



(C)

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (D).

The polarity of DNA strand acts a template strand for RNA. The coding strand for RNA is mRNA.The nucleotide sequence of mRNA molecules determines the sequence of amino acids in genes of protein. Hence, mRNA are called sense strands of RNA.

Hence, for given sense strand of DNA 5'-ATGGACCAGA-3', the resulting RNA sequence after transcription is option(D), 5'-AUGGACCAGA-3'.
