If one strand of DNA has the nitrogenous base sequence as ATCTG, what would be the complementary RNA strand sequence?
TTAGU
UAGAC
AACTG
ATCGU
the principle of complementarity governs the process of transcription, with the exception that Adenine (A) forms a base pair with Uracil (U) in RNA instead of Thymine . Therefore, the complementary RNA sequence for the DNA segment ATCTG is determined as follows: A→U, T→A, C→G, T→A, G→C, resulting in UAGAC , .
