  • question_answer
    During transcription, the nucleotide sequence of the DNA strand that is being coded is ATACG, then the nucleotide sequence in the mRNA would be

    A)  TATGC       

    B)  TCTGG

    C)  UAUGC       

    D)  UATGG

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The formatipn of\[mRNA\]from DNA is termed as transcription. This process takes place in the nucleus (eukaryotes) or in the cytoplasm (prokaryotes). The base sequence of\[mRNA\]is complementary copy of the template DNA I strand. If DNA has ATACG nucleotide sequence then the mRNA would contain UAUGC nucleotide sequence.
