Question 1: While examining a gene related to calcium ion channels in humans (CACNA1S) you discover a nearby region that likely codes for an miRNA associated with CACNA1S. What evidence would lead you to this conclusion? Stated another way, what would the discovered DNA region look like to convince you that you had found an miRNA region associated with CACNA1S? (Hint: be mindful of the 3'- 5' or 5'-3' direction in your answer) A. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions identical to the template strand of the CACNA1s gene. B. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions identical to the coding strand of the CACNA1s gene. C. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions antiparallel to the template strand of the CACNA1s gene. D. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions antiparallel to the coding strand of the CACNA1s gene.

Question
Question 1: While examining a gene related to calcium ion channels in humans
(CACNA1S) you discover a nearby region that likely codes for an miRNA associated
with CACNA1S. What evidence would lead you to this conclusion? Stated another
way, what would the discovered DNA region look like to convince you that you
had found an miRNA region associated with CACNA1S? (Hint: be mindful of the 3'-
5' or 5'-3' direction in your answer)
A. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions identical to the
template strand of the CACNA1s gene.
B. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions identical to the
coding strand of the CACNA1s gene.
C. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions antiparallel to
the template strand of the CACNA1s gene.
D. The template strand coding for the miRNA contains regions antiparallel to
the coding strand of the CACNA1s gene.
