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>

g During the G2 stage of interphase, ___ does not occur. A. organelle replication B. DNA growth C. protein replication D. cell g
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: DNA growth does not occur

Explanation:

Here, the cell has grown, the DNA has been replicated (this takes place in the S phase of interphase) and its almost time for the cell to divide. Basically, what occurs during the G2 phase (Gap 2 phase of interphase) includes duplication of all proteins and organelles needed later during the process of cell division. Some of these includes assembly of microtubles will later for the spindle structure that that helps in the separation of chromosomes during the M phase but these are produced during the G2 phase.

The cells also continue to increase/grow in size and the volume of the cytoplasm also increase in this phase. There is also a checking where the cell needs to check for the structures and components and to also ensure that they are all present
