Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

In double stranded DNA, only one strand codes for the RNA that is translated into protein. This DNA strand is referred to as the antisense strand. The strand that does not code for RNA (non- template) is called the sense + strand because if u look and match the sequence of RNA it will match except T instead of U. so codes will match exactly therefore coding.

We allredy know that DNA is a double stranded molecule in which two strand is present one is sense strand and another is Antisense strand .sense strand means segment present in DNA that carries translatable code or coding strand in 5 prime to 3 prime strand direction or the strand which act as template in replication process and formed indentucal copies called as sense strand and non translatable cod or the strand which is not act as template in replication process called as Antisense strand . I think you should satisfied from my answer .
the strand which codes for RNA is the antisense strand and the strand which is similar to RNA (except T instead of U) is the sense strand..... am i right??
in sense strand contains the same nucleotide sequence as the mRNA except Thymine
yes you right .
Antisense DNA: DNA normally has two strands, i.e., the sense strand and the antisense strand. In double-stranded DNA, only one strand codes for the RNA that is translated into protein. This DNA strand is referred to as the antisense strand. The strand that does not code for RNA is called the sense strand. Another way of defining antisense DNA is that it is the strand of DNA that carries the information necessary to make proteins by binding to a corresponding messenger RNA.
