Answer:

The RNA transcripts will be- UGGACCUA

Step-by-step explanation:

In RNA in place of T(thymine) U(uracil) comes as the complementary base for A(adenine) present in DNA template strand and Adenine comes as complementary base for Thymine that is present in the template DNA strand.

So as RNA transcript is complementary to DNA sequence present on the template strand, therefore, the complementary sequence of RNA transcript for DNA sequence ACCTGGAT will be UGGACCUA.

Each triplet codons present on RNA transcript codes for a particular amino acids during translation process.

In DNA, the nucleotide are ATGC, and in RNA, the nucleotides are AUGC. In the RNA transcript, the base sequence is complementary to that of the DNA template. So, in this case, the sequence would be UGGACCUA.
