Answer:

transcription: 5' TAGGTCAAACTTGCATAT 3' -> 5' UAGGUCAAACUUGCAUAU 3'

Translation: 5' UAG GUU CAA ACU UGC AUA 3' -> Val-Gln-Thr-Cys-Ile-STOP.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transcription is the process of producing an RNA molecule from a DNA template, where the DNA sequence is used to synthesize a complementary RNA strand. Translation is the process of converting the RNA sequence into a protein, where the RNA sequence is read in groups of three nucleotides called codons, and each codon specifies a particular amino acid.
