Answer:

Unsure about answer so ask to your teacher and reply back.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transcription is the process of copying a strand of DNA into a strand of mRNA in the nucleus to prepare for protein synthesis.

The transcription would utilize complimentary base pairing rules for DNA to RNA

A-U Adenine to Uracil

T-A Thymine to Adenine

C-G Cytosine to Guanine

G-C Guanine to Cytosine

Uracil replaces thymine in RNA

For the original DNA strand of

3'- TACCGAGATGTATCAACT -5'

The transcribed mRNA would be

5'- AUGGCUCUACAUAGUUGA-3'
