The correct Answer is:
To find the base sequence of the RNA transcript obtained from the given DNA segment, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Coding Strand The coding strand of DNA is given as: 5' - G C A T T C G G C T A G T A A C - 3' ### Step 2: Understand the Transcription Process During transcription, the RNA polymerase reads the non-coding strand (template strand) of DNA and synthesizes RNA in the 5' to 3' direction. The RNA transcript will be complementary to the non-coding strand and will replace thymine (T) with uracil (U). ### Step 3: Write the Non-Coding Strand The non-coding strand (template strand) is given as: 3' - C G T A A G C C G A T C A T C A T T G - 5' ### Step 4: Transcribe the Non-Coding Strand To transcribe the non-coding strand into RNA, we will create a complementary RNA strand. The base pairing rules are as follows: - C (cytosine) pairs with G (guanine) - G (guanine) pairs with C (cytosine) - T (thymine) pairs with A (adenine) - A (adenine) pairs with U (uracil) Using these rules, we transcribe the non-coding strand: - C → G - G → C - T → A - A → U - A → U - G → C - C → G - G → C - A → U - T → A - C → G - A → U - T → A - C → G - A → U - T → A - T → A - G → C ### Step 5: Construct the RNA Transcript The RNA transcript, synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction, will be: 5' - G C A U U C G G C U A G U A A C - 3' ### Final Answer The base sequence of the RNA transcript obtained from the given DNA segment is: **5' - G C A U U C G G C U A G U A A C - 3'** ---
