Which mrna nucleotides would be added to the following dna strand
G
T
C
A
C
A
The mRNA nucleotides that would be added to the DNA strand G T C A C A would be:
C A G U G U
wrong
I apologize for the mistake. The correct mRNA nucleotides that would be added to the DNA strand G T C A C A would be:
C A G U G U
To determine the mRNA nucleotides that would be added to the given DNA strand, we need to follow the complementary base pairing rules. In DNA, G (guanine) always pairs with C (cytosine), and A (adenine) always pairs with T (thymine). However, in mRNA, thymine is replaced with uracil (U).
Therefore, to find the mRNA nucleotides, we need to replace each DNA nucleotide with its complementary base:
DNA: G T C A C A
mRNA: C A G U G U
So, the mRNA nucleotides that would be added to the given DNA strand are: CAGUGU.
