To determine the sequence of bases on the tRNA that corresponds to the mRNA codon AUU, we need to remember that tRNA anticodons are complementary to mRNA codons.
The mRNA codon AUU has the following bases:
- A pairs with U
- U pairs with A
- U pairs with A
So, the complementary tRNA anticodon sequence for AUU would be:
- UAA
Therefore, the correct answer is:
**2. UAA**
