An original DNA strand has the following base sequence:

ACGTAAGCT

What base sequence would be produced through transcription?

A. ACGUAAGCU
B. UGCAUUCGA
C. CAUGCCUAG
D. GUACGGAUC

Respuesta :

The answer is B, because in mRNA, the only change in bases is that A transcribes into U 

The sequence that would be produced through transcription having sequence of original DNA strand ACGTAAGCT is UGCAUUCGA.

What is DNA?

  • DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid.
  • It is a long chain of polynucleotide.
  • Each nucleotide consists of: deoxyribose sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases (nitrogen-containing compound).
  • Nitrogenous bases are of two types: Purines (consisting Adenine and Guanine) and Pyrimidine (consisting Cytosine and Thymine).
  • Adenine pairs with Thymine by forming two hydrogen bonds whereas Guanine pairs with Cytosine by forming three hydrogen bonds.

What is RNA?

  • RNA stands for ribonucleic acid.
  • It is a long chain of polynucleotide.
  • Each nucleotide consists of: phosphate group, ribose sugar and nitrogenous bases.
  • Nitrogenous bases are of two types: Purines and Pyrimidines.
  • Purines consists of Adenine and Guanine whereas Pyrimidines consists of Cytosine and Uracil (instead of Thymine).
  • Adenine pairs with Uracil whereas Guanine pairs with Cytosine.

What is transcription?

  • The process by which mRNA is produced from DNA sequence.
  • Example: If the sequence of original DNA strand is ACGTAAGCT then the sequence of mRNA would be UGCAUUCGA.

Hence, the correct option is: B. UGCAUUCGA.
