If one strand of DNA has the nitrogenous base sequence as ATCTG, what would be the complementary RNA strand sequence?

A

TTAGU

B

UAGAC

C

AACTG

D

ATCGU

Step-by-Step Solution

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 , .
