Question

3 fill in the blank 1 point transcribe the following dna strand: gca tcg transcribed strand: type your answer...

Explanation:

Step1: Recall base - pairing rules

In transcription, DNA is transcribed to RNA. The base - pairing rules are: A (adenine) in DNA pairs with U (uracil) in RNA, T (thymine) in DNA pairs with A (adenine) in RNA, C (cytosine) in DNA pairs with G (guanine) in RNA, and G (guanine) in DNA pairs with C (cytosine) in RNA.

Step2: Transcribe each base

For the DNA strand GCA TCG:

• G (guanine) transcribes to C (cytosine)
• C (cytosine) transcribes to G (guanine)
• A (adenine) transcribes to U (uracil)
• T (thymine) transcribes to A (adenine)
• C (cytosine) transcribes to G (guanine)
• G (guanine) transcribes to C (cytosine)
