The correct Answer is:
To find the RNA code corresponding to the DNA sequence AGCT, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the DNA Sequence The given DNA sequence is AGCT. ### Step 2: Understand Base Pairing Rules In DNA, the base pairing rules are as follows: - Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) - Guanine (G) pairs with Cytosine (C) When transcribing DNA to RNA, the base pairing rules change slightly: - Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U) in RNA instead of Thymine (T) - Guanine (G) still pairs with Cytosine (C) - Cytosine (C) still pairs with Guanine (G) - Thymine (T) in DNA pairs with Adenine (A) in RNA ### Step 3: Transcribe Each Base Now, we will transcribe each base of the DNA sequence AGCT into RNA: - A (Adenine) in DNA pairs with U (Uracil) in RNA. - G (Guanine) in DNA pairs with C (Cytosine) in RNA. - C (Cytosine) in DNA pairs with G (Guanine) in RNA. - T (Thymine) in DNA pairs with A (Adenine) in RNA. ### Step 4: Write the RNA Sequence Putting it all together, the RNA sequence corresponding to the DNA sequence AGCT is: - A → U - G → C - C → G - T → A Thus, the RNA sequence is **UCGA**. ### Final Answer The code in RNA corresponding to AGCT in DNA is **UCGA**. ---
