Solution

The correct option is A UAAGCUAC
The sequence of bases in DNA is ATTCGATG, then the sequences of bases in its transcript will be UAAGCUAC. As the DNA is transcribed into a segment of RNA it contains complementary nitrogenous bases in accordance to the given sequence, however, in RNA the nitrogenous base thymine is replaced by uracil.
So, the correct answer is 'UAAGCUAC'.
