The strand running in the 3'-5' end will be the one that RNA copies, as this is the direction of transcription
DNA transcribes mRNA through a process called transcription. The enzyme RNA polymerase synthesizes the mRNA by reading the DNA template strand and creating a complementary RNA strand. This mRNA molecule carries the genetic information from the DNA to be translated into proteins in the cell.
mRNA
DNA is not made into mRNA, it is transcribed by mRNA. The DNA molecule is split into two strands by the enzyme helicase. One strand is the sense strand and the other is the anti-sense strand. Then mRNA nucleotides pair with their complimentary DNA bases on the antisense strand. The enzyme RNA polymerase causes the mRNA nucleotides to bond with one another, forming a strand of mRNA.
The DNA strand ATTAGCGTA transcribes into the mRNA sequence UAAUCGCAU. During transcription, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U) in RNA instead of thymine (T), while cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and vice versa. Thus, the transcription process converts the original DNA sequence into its complementary RNA form.
To determine the base sequence of a DNA strand from a given mRNA sequence, you need to consider that mRNA is synthesized from the DNA template strand through a process called transcription. The mRNA bases pair with their complementary DNA bases, where adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), uracil (U) in mRNA pairs with adenine (A) in DNA, cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C). Therefore, to find the DNA base sequence, you can convert the mRNA sequence to its corresponding DNA sequence by replacing U with A and reversing the order to get the complementary DNA strand.

mRNA transcribes a strand of DNA and carries the genetic code to a ribosome, where the mRNA code is translated by tRNA into a strand of amino acids, making a protein.

The mRNA sequence generated from the DNA strand tgacgca would be acugcgu. This is because mRNA is complementary to the DNA template strand, so DNA base T pairs with mRNA base A, DNA base G pairs with mRNA base C, DNA base A pairs with mRNA base U, and DNA base C pairs with mRNA base G.
The DNA strand that is copied to make mRNA is the template strand of the gene. This strand serves as a template for the RNA polymerase enzyme to synthesize a complementary mRNA strand during the process of transcription.
The difference between the coding strand and the template strand is the coding strand is the strand which contains the coding genes, i.e. the one in which the RNA polymerase reads and transcribes into mRNA. It must have the promoter sequence in the correct orientation for transcription, as follows:5`-TATAATGCGCGCGCGCGCGCGCGC-3`3`-ATATTACGCGCGCGCGCGCGCGCG-5`In this sequence, the top strand is the coding strand, because it contains the promoter (TATAAT) in the correct orientation.However, when transcribed, the mRNA will be as follows:5`-GCGCGCGCGCGCGCGCGCGC-3`This is because the polymerase transcribes from the template strand, on the opposide side to the coding strand, to make it in the same orientation as the coding strand.I hope I have explained it enough for people to understand, however if I haven't please read this article I found which explains it thoroughly:http://www.bio.net/bionet/mm/bioforum/1994-May/008821.html
The sense strand of DNA is the strand that has the same sequence as the mRNA that is transcribed from DNA. The antisense strand is the complementary strand of the sense strand, which is used as a template for mRNA synthesis. The mRNA is transcribed from the antisense strand and contains the same sequence as the sense strand.
One mRNA strand is made.
