Answer:

The complementary messenger-RNA sequence for the DNA sequence C-A-A-G-G-T is G-U-U-C-C-A.

This is because messenger-RNA is created by a process of transcription in which the complementary base is matched to each side of the DNA sequence.

In this case, the base C is matched with G, A is matched with U, and G is matched with C. Therefore, the complementary messenger-RNA sequence is G-U-U-C-C-A.
