Assertion : Sequence of bases in DNA is ...

Assertion : Sequence of bases in DNA is TGAACCCTT and sequence of bases in m-RNA is CATTAAACC.
Reason: In DNA nitrogeneous bases have hydrogen bonds.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Sequence of bases in DNA is TGAACCCTT. Since according to base-pairing principle, T in DNA faces A in m-RNA, while G faces C and A faces U. Therefore, sequence of bases in m-RNA is ACUUGGGAA.
