Explanation:

In transcription, DNA's thymine (T) pairs with mRNA's adenine (A), and DNA's adenine (A) pairs with mRNA's uracil (U), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G) and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C). For the DNA sequence TAGTAGTAG, the complementary mRNA bases are AUAUAUAU.

Answer:

A. AUCAUCAUC
