The answer is the third one (or C): ATGCTAA.

Explanation for each option:

  1. UAGCAUU: This sequence is incorrect because it represents RNA bases, not DNA. In RNA, thymine (T) is replaced by uracil (U).
  2. AUCGUAA: This sequence is also incorrect for the same reason as the first option; it represents RNA bases.
  3. ATGCTAA: This is the correct complementary DNA sequence. In DNA, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). Therefore, the complementary strand to TACGATT is ATGCTAA.

Summary: The correct complementary DNA sequence to TACGATT is ATGCTAA.
