Answer:

1) G C G U A U G (C C C) (U U U) (A A C) (C G C)

2) U U A U G (C G U) (U A G) (G C G) (U U U) (A U U)

3) U A U G (G C U) (U A G) (A A U) (A A C) (C C G) (U A A)

4) U U A U G (C A A) (A G G) (G C G) (U A U) (C U U) (U A G)

5) represent codons which are groupings of 3 consecutive nucletides

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposites for REGULAR mDNA base pairings are T= A and G = C, however, since it is mRNA, your base pairings change a little. G is still to C BUT Thymine (T) becomes Uracil (U) so A= U instead of A= T. So big difference between mRNA and mDNA is that Thymine changes to Uracil and vice versa depending on how the code is being translated.

Hope this helps some, please let me know if there's anything that doesn't make sense
