Solution
The correct option is D 5' - UUUACGCGCUAU- 3' and 3'- AAAUGCGCGAUA - 5'
The mRNA should have uracil or U in place of T as in pair of A-U and the codon will be UUUACGCGCUAU read from 5' to 3'. The anti-codon will also be just the pair of A-U and G-C that is AAA UGC GCG AUA in triplets as anticodons are always intriplets.
