Solution

The complementary messenger RNA strand that would be synthesized from the DNA template sequence of 5' CTGAC 3' would be 5' GACUG 3'.

Here's the step by step process:

  1. Transcription is the process where a segment of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

  2. In this process, the RNA polymerase binds to the DNA template strand and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand.

  3. The RNA strand is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction.

  4. The DNA bases pair with their complementary RNA bases: Adenine (A) pairs with Uracil (U), and Cytosine (C) pairs with Guanine (G).

  5. So, the DNA sequence 5' CTGAC 3' would pair as follows: C pairs with G, T pairs with A, G pairs with C, A pairs with U, and C pairs with G.

  6. Therefore, the complementary RNA strand would be 5' GACUG 3'.

So, the correct answer is 5' GACUG 3'.
