Question

10. A DNA template strand has 34% Adenine (A), 20% Thymine (T), 30%

* 1 p

Cytosine (C), and 16% Guanine (G) percent composition.

What would be the mRNA nucleotide percent composition?

• 20% Adenine (A), 34% Uracil (U), 16% Cytosine (C), and 30% Guanine (G)

• 20% Adenine (A), 34% Thymine (T), 16% Cytosine (C), and 30% Guanine (G)

• 34% Adenine (A), 20% Uracil (U), 30% Cytosine (C), and 16% Guanine (G)

• 34% Adenine (A), 20% Thymine (T), 30% Cytosine (C), and 16% Guanine (G)

Answer

34% Adenine (A), 20% Uracil (U), 30% Cytosine (C), and 16% Guanine (G)
