Hello everyone!
I'm a bit confused when I run into problems that involve Transcribing a DNA strand. I'm currently using Kaplan books and I was just wondering, for the real MCAT, will they clarify which strand of DNA you are given?
When I was doing these problems in my Kaplan book it would not clarify what strand you are given (whether it be a Coding strand or a Template strand) so I wasn't sure if I should first find the template strand and then transcribe it or directly transcribe the strand.
Do I assume that it is either Coding/Template or will it be clarified?
