A strand that is transcribed is called a template strand, the other one is called a coding strand. The template strand is in 3'-5' direction, and the coding strand is in 5'-3' direction. mRNA is transcribed from 3'-5' template DNA strand, so it is in 5' to 3' direction. <span>The first codon of mRNA is called start codon and usually it is AUG.

Knowing this, we can answer the questions:

The transcribed strand must contain three nucleotide sequence complementary to AUG codon. According to the base pairing rules, it must be TAC. The strand that contains TAC, and, thus, is transcribed is
</span><span>C C C T A C G C C T T T C A G G T T.
This template strand is in 3'-5' direction and the other one is 5'-3'.
mRNA transcription begins from the DNA sequence complementary to AUG codon:
</span>DNA sequence:    3' C C C T A  C G C C T T  T C A G G T T 5'
<span>mRNA sequence:         5'  A U G C G G A A A G U C C A A 3'
mRNA sequence is in 5'-3' direction.</span>

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:DNA is shown to be the genetic material in bacteria and some phages.

DNA is shown to be present in mitochondria, chloroplasts and nucleus, where genetic function is performed

Specific genes can be isolated and spliced into bacterial DNA, which can be inserted into a bacterial cell, and then its genetic expression is monitored.

DNA and RNA are found to be the only macromolecules in eukaryotes that consist of a set of subunits which can combine in unique sequence

Explanation:

1. Lipds is another macro molecule with different subnits  of  fatty acids and glycerol,therefore the option ( DNA is found to be the only macro molecule in Eukaryotas that has different sub units) is WRONG.

2 The   correlation of action and absorption spectra varies with different organisms DNA. e..g  in viral cells  there is a wide difference between the absorption and action spectra, that is no correlation, while  some bacterial cells showed correlations. The option(For DNA, content in various cell types action and absorption spectra of ultraviolet light are correlated IS WRONG.
