Solution
The correct option is A TAG
- In DNA transcription, the coding strand is the DNA strand whose base sequence corresponds to the base sequence of the RNA transcript produced (although with thymine replaced by uracil).
- It is this strand which contains codons, while the non-coding strand contains anticodons.
- Hence, UAG is triplet nitrogen base on m RNA, TAG will be the corresponding triplet on the coding strand.
- So, the correct answer is 'TAG'.
