Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -UCG is the anticodon on tRNA for AGC codon in an mRNA.
Detailed explanation-2: -Stop codons are also called nonsense codons because they do not code for an amino acid and instead signal the end of protein synthesis. Thus, nonsense mutations occur when a premature nonsense or stop codon is introduced in the DNA sequence.
