Given the template strand DNA sequence 5'-TCA AAA TGG ATT CAT-3', what is the corresponding mRNA sequence (written 5'-3')?
a. ATG AAT CCA TTT TGA
b. TCA AAA TGG ATT CAT
c. AUG AAU CCA UUU UGA
d. UCA AAA UGG AUU CAU

First important thing to notice is that RNA doesn't have Thymine, all thymines are changed for Uracils. Then, the correspondency is thymine-Adenine, Guanine-Cytosine (and viceversa) Adenine-Uracil. Lastly, the transcription process happens from 3' to 5', so the question asks for the final result to be read to the opposite direction. Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Given the template strand DNA sequence 5'-TCA AAA TGG ATT CAT-3', what is the corresponding mRNA sequence (written 5'-3')? a. ATG AAT CCA TTT TGA b. TCA AAA TGG ATT CAT c. AUG AAU CCA UUU UGA d. UCA AAA UGG AUU CAU
