To write out the complementary strand of mRNA that corresponds to the given DNA strand, we need to follow the base pairing rules for transcription. In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). However, during transcription to mRNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) instead of thymine (T).

Given the DNA strand:
TAGCATCC

The complementary mRNA strand will be:
AUCGAUAGG

Here's the breakdown of the base pairing:

  • T (thymine) in DNA pairs with A (adenine) in mRNA.
  • A (adenine) in DNA pairs with U (uracil) in mRNA.
  • G (guanine) in DNA pairs with C (cytosine) in mRNA.
  • C (cytosine) in DNA pairs with G (guanine) in mRNA.

Therefore, the complementary mRNA strand is AUCGAUAGG.

So far we have covered Pearson's Chi square test (of Association), Pearson's Correlation analysis coefficient and One sample t test; From the following options please identify what is common among all three? - All three are suitable for continuous data. - All three can be used regardless of the measurement scale of the test variable/s. - We use p value to decide whether to reject or retain null. - All three are suitable for categorical data. - All three tests were designed/created by same person. - All three give us hard time (while it may ring true for you, but it is not the correct answer :)).
