Answer:

caaucagacacccga

Step-by-step explanation:

dna base sequences are complementary to mrna base sequences.

There are 4 base sequences in DNA:

adenine (a), thymine (t), guanine (g) and cytosine (c). In complementary base pairing a pairs with t, and c pairs with g via hydrogen bonding.

However mRNA does not have the same four bases. In RNA, thymine is replaced with uracil (u), so a pairs with u, and c pairs with g.
