Answer: The corresponding mRNA sequence to the DNA strand will be

ATTGCGAATTC

Step-by-step explanation:

Because nitrogenous bases specifically pair in the following order:

- Adenine pairs with Thymine

- Cytosine pairs with Guanine

mRNA also known as messenger RNA, which is complimentary to one strand of DNA will have its sequence as the "pairing base partner". Thus, the mRNA sequence is ATTGCGAATTC.
