Match the DNA sequences of nitrogenous bases to their complementary mRNA sequenc!
Question: Match the DNA sequences of nitrogenous bases to their complementary mRNA sequences that they would code for?
ATGGCAATAC matches with ______________
GATTACACCG matches with ______________
The options are: TACCGTTATG, UACCGUUAUG, GTAATGTAGG, CUAAUGUGGC
I just don't get the pattern! I'm thinking it's CUAAUGUGGC for the first one because I'm pretty sure the "T" is replaced with a "U" in the copied version, but I can't find a simple explanation for how they're matched. Answers and/or explanations greatly appreciated!

Answers:
DNA: ATGGCAATAC matches with TACCGTTATG. if we change that into mRNA, then it will be UACCGUUAUG.
GATTACACCG matches with CTAATGTGGC, mRNA is CUAAUGUGGC.
DNA/mRNA A=U T=A C=G G=C.
:)
ATGGCAATAC matches with UACCGUUAUG.
A match with U replacing T and T match with A.
C match with G and G match with C.
GATTACACCG matches with CUAAUGUGGC.
