• \end{array}\)
• B) \(\begin{array}{l}
• 5^{\prime} \text {-UUACGAUGC-3' } \\
• 3^{\prime} \text {-AAUGCUACG-5' }
• \end{array}\)
• C) \(\begin{array}{l}
• 5^{\prime}-\text {CGUAGCAUU-3' } \\
• 3^{\prime}-\text {GCAUCGUAA-5' }
• \end{array}\)
• D) \(\begin{array}{l}
• 5^{\prime}-\text {GCAUCGUAA-3' } \\
• 3^{\prime}-\text { CGUAGCAUU-5 }
