Answer:
Explanation:
The double-stranded DNA molecule has the potential to store genetic information in either strand, although in most organisms <u>only one strand is used to encode any particular gene</u>.
The template strand is the non-coding strand. The coding strand of DNA is the non-template (mRNA-like) strand (see attachment).
Thus, genetic information is expressed by transcription of the non-coding (template) strand of DNA, <u>which produces an mRNA molecule that has the same sequence as the coding strand of DNA</u>. Therefore, if a mRNA is transcribed from the non-template strand, the genetic information will not be contained in that strand and it would not produce a correct protein.
