The correct Answer is:
To determine the sequence of bases in mRNA from the given coding strand of DNA (ATTCGATG), we need to follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the DNA Coding Strand**: The coding strand of DNA is given as ATTCGATG. 2. **Understand Base Pairing Rules**: - In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). - In RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) instead of thymine (T). 3. **Transcribe the DNA Sequence to mRNA**: - Replace each base in the DNA coding strand with its complementary RNA base: - A (Adenine) in DNA pairs with U (Uracil) in RNA. - T (Thymine) in DNA pairs with A (Adenine) in RNA. - C (Cytosine) in DNA pairs with G (Guanine) in RNA. - G (Guanine) in DNA pairs with C (Cytosine) in RNA. 4. **Apply the Transcription Rules**: - A → U - T → A - T → A - C → G - G → C - A → U - T → A - G → C 5. **Write the mRNA Sequence**: - Following the above substitutions, the mRNA sequence corresponding to the DNA coding strand ATTCGATG will be: - UAAUGCUAC ### Final Answer: The sequence of bases in mRNA will be **UAACGCUAC**.
