Answer:

AUGGCUACC

Step-by-step explanation:

RNA has three nucleotides in common with DNA: A (Adenine), C (Cytosine), and G (Guanine). However, T (Thymine) in DNA is replaced with U (Uracil) in RNA. A pairs with U, T pairs with A, and C pairs with G and vice versa.

So, the sequence will go like this:

TACCGATGG (DNA)

AUGGCUACC (RNA)

Hope this helps.
