Answer: Thecorrect answer would be

3' GGGAACCTTGATGTTTCGGCTCTAATT 5'

Explanation:

DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, that is, polymers of nucleotide. DNA consists of adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. In contrast, RNA contains uracil in place of thymine. Rest three nucleotide are same.

Please note that transcription (DNA to RNA) as well as reverse transcription (RNA to DNA) is done on the basis of base complementary nature.

The base pairs are:

  • adenine- thymine/uracil
  • guanine- cytosine

So, if adenine is present in DNA then uracil will be incorporated in RNA and vice-versa.

For example, the initial 5 nucleotide of given RNA are 5' CCCUU...3'

So, in DNA, based on base complementary rule, G will be incorporated against C and A will be incorporated against U. Thus, the DNA sequence would be 3' GGGAA...5'.

Similarly, the whole sequence can be worked out.

Receptors are needed for which type(s) of cell signaling?
Mice21 [21]

Receptors are needed for both Short and Long range  cell signaling.

<h3>What are receptors?</h3>

In the cell, there are some special proteins who play the role of receiving external signals. These are what we call receptors.

These receptors could function for both long and short range cell signaling. Hence, Receptors are needed for both Short and Long range  cell signaling.
