Since this is not my area, I looked it up on the Internet:
The anticodon is located in the Anticodon arm of the molecule of tRNA, while the codons are located in the molecule of DNA and mRNA. The anticodon is complementary to the respective codon, and the codon in the mRNA is complementary to a nucleotide triplet from a certain gene in the DNA.
I hope this helps. If not, make further use of the Internet.
The codon and anticodon are base-paired together during the process of translation. Which of the following is correct regarding the relationship between anticodon and codon?
A.
The tRNA anticodon UCU pairs with the AGA mRNA codon.
B.
The tRNA anticodon is read from the 5’ to the 3’ end.
C.
A tRNA anticodon can pair with only one mRNA codon.
D.
The mRNA codon ACG base pairs with the tRNA anticodon TGC.
