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.

QUESTION 2
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Xylem and phloem are the two conducting tissues of a vascular plants. They are referred to as vascular bundles. Xylem and phloem are responsible for conducting certain substances from one part of the plant to another.

The xylem is responsible for conducting WATER AND DISSOLVED MINERALS from the root of the plants to other parts e.g leaves, stem, flowers etc. while the phloem conducts sugar (product of photosynthesis) e.g glucose from the leaves of the plant to other parts including the stem, root etc.

According to this question, xylem or phloem does not conduct or carry gaseous substances like carbon dioxide (CO2).
