The correct Answer is:
To determine the sequence of bases in the mRNA transcript from the given DNA sequence (GCTTAGGCAA), we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the DNA Sequence**: We start with the given DNA sequence: - DNA: GCTTAGGCAA 2. **Understand Complementary Base Pairing**: In DNA and RNA, the base pairing rules are as follows: - Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U) in RNA (instead of Thymine (T) in DNA). - Thymine (T) pairs with Adenine (A). - Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G). - Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C). 3. **Transcribe the DNA Sequence**: We will transcribe the DNA sequence into mRNA by replacing each DNA base with its complementary RNA base: - G (from DNA) → C (in RNA) - C (from DNA) → G (in RNA) - T (from DNA) → A (in RNA) - T (from DNA) → A (in RNA) - A (from DNA) → U (in RNA) - G (from DNA) → C (in RNA) - G (from DNA) → C (in RNA) - C (from DNA) → G (in RNA) - A (from DNA) → U (in RNA) 4. **Write the mRNA Sequence**: After applying the above rules to the entire DNA sequence, we get: - mRNA: CGAAUCCGUU 5. **Final Answer**: The sequence of bases in the mRNA transcript is: - CGAAUCCGUU
