Solution

The correct option is D

UAAGCUAC


DNA gets transcribed and forms mRNA. This mRNA transcript has bases complementary to DNA. Except for uracil which replaces thymine in mRNA. A (Adenine) pairs with U (Uracil) instead of Thymine (T) and C (Cytosine) pairs with G (Guanine). Thus, the complementary RNA sequence will be:
