The complementary strand of DNA for the given RNA sequence 5' -UGACGA-3' is

A5'-ACTGCT-3'
B5'-TGACGA-3'
C5'-TCGTCA-3'
D5'-UCGTCA-3'

Correct answer: A. 5'-ACTGCT-3'

The complementary strand of RNA is determined by the base pairing rules: A pairs with U, C pairs with G, and G pairs with C. Therefore, the complementary DNA sequence for 5' -UGACGA-3' would be 5'-ACTGCT-3'.
