A DNA molecule has the sequence GCATCCGA. What is the mRNA sequence resulting for this DNA code?

the mRNA is the opposite of DNA but make whatever would be thymine uracil so the answer should be CGUAGGCU

Answer: The mRNA sequence is CGUAGGCU

The sequence of DNA molecule is GCATCCGA and when it is transcribed, it forms mRNA ( messenger RNA). The mRNA sequence is complementary to the DNA template. The corresponding nucleotides in mRNA are added in the following manner-

For G in the DNA, C ( cytosine) is added in mRNA and vice versa. Similarly, for A ( adenine) , U ( Uracil) is added in mRNA and for T( thymine), A ( adenine) is added in mRNA.

Thus, for the given DNA sequence, CGUAGGCU is the right mRNA sequence.
