Answer:
RNA: [tex]A-U-G-U-A-U-A-C-G-G-A-U-U-G-A[/tex]
Amino acids: Methionine, Tyrosine, Threonine, Aspartic Acid
Explanation:
1) First, transcribe the DNA to RNA. For each nitrogenous base (to put it simply, the letter) listed in the DNA strand, write the strand of RNA with the matching nitrogenous base. Remember that, when transcribing, the thymine (T) from DNA can pair with adenine (A) in the RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), and cytosine (C) and guanine (G) always pair with another.
DNA: [tex]T-A-C-A-T-A-T-G-C-C-T-A-A-C-T[/tex]
RNA: [tex]A-U-G-U-A-U-A-C-G-G-A-U-U-G-A[/tex]
2) Next, to find the amino acids the strand codes for, read the nitrogenous bases in the RNA from left to right in groups of three, or codons. Then, using a codon chart, find which amino acid the group of three bases codes for. This gives the following answer below. (Remember that the codon UGA stops the translation and therefore does not code for an amino acid.)
Amino acids: Methionine, Tyrosine, Threonine, Aspartic Acid
