Solution

The correct option is D

AGGUAUCGCAU


The correct option is D.

Explanation of Correct option

  1. The DNA molecule is made of two strands- a template or noncoding strand and a nontemplate or coding strand.
  2. The coding strand and the mRNA share the base sequence. T
  3. The only exception is that the thymine molecule is replaced with the uracil molecule.
  4. The corresponding sequence from the given coding strand sequence is AGGUAUCGCAU.

Final answer

The corresponding sequence of the transcribed mRNA from the given coding sequence is AGGUAUCGCAU.
