Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The base sequence for initially synthesized RNA for the DNA template strand
Concept introduction: DNA strand contains a complementary base pairing between A-T and C-G. The complementary strands are antiparallel to each other. RNA molecule contains the similar base pairing but the base thymine is replaced by uracil.
