Assume that one backbone of a DNA molecule has the sequence given below. A-T-G-G-G-G-G-C-G-A-T-A-T-T-T-T-A-T-C-C-G-A-C-G For this sequence: give the expected sequence of the other DNA backbone. T-A-C-C-C-C-C-G-C-T-A-T-A-A-A-A-T-A-G-G-C-T-G-C give the RNA sequence transcribed from the original DNA backbone. U-A-C-C-C-C-C-G-C-U-A-T-A-A-A-A-U-A-G-G-C-U-G-C give the Amino Acid sequence of the protein built from the original DNA backbone.

Answer:

DNA: ATGGGGGCGATATTTTATCCGACG

RNA: AUGGGGGCGAUAUUUUAUCCGACG

Protein: MGAIFYPT

Step-by-step explanation:

Transcription is a genetic process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into RNA, typically a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence which is subsequently used to create a protein by the process of translation. During translation, each triplet of nucleotides or 'codon' corresponds to a specific amino acid. For example, AUG is a codon that codes for methionine (M) and also acts as an initiation codon at the beginning of the nascent polypeptide chain.
