Answer:

GGA-GAA-AUG-UGU- GCC-UCC-CAU-GCG-AUA-AGA-UAA-UGU-GCC-AAC-AAC-GCU-AGG-UAU-UAG

that was long

Step-by-step explanation:

Anyways, we're going to use transcription to turn these DNA codons into mRNA codons so they can be turned into amino acids.

Transcription: - Converting DNA sequences into mRNA sequences.

PAIRS

A(Adenine) goes with T(Thymine)

C(Cytosine) goes with G(Guanine)

another way to remember this is

Apples Under Trees

Cars in Garages

Apple goes with Trees

Cars goes with Garages

But why did I uppercase the U?

In transcription, instead of the A being with the T, it turns into U(Uracil)

THERE ARE NO T'S IN TRANSCRIPTION

Ex: ATC would be UAG

Hope that helped. If needed I can go in depth:)
