The template strand is given below
3'-ATGCAT-5'
The right coding strand for this will be

5'-TACGTA-3'

The correct answer is Option (2) → 5'-TACGTA-3'

In DNA, the coding strand (also known as the sense strand) and the template strand (also known as the antisense strand) have complementary sequences. The template strand is used during transcription to generate a complementary RNA sequence, which in turn mirrors the coding strand (except with uracil instead of thymine).

Given the template strand:

• 3'-ATGCAT-5'

The coding strand would be the complementary DNA sequence:

• Complement of A = T
• Complement of T = A
• Complement of G = C
• Complement of C = G

So, the complementary (coding) strand sequence is: 5'-TACGTA-3'
