Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
the molecule that carries the anti-codon that has amino acids to be sequenced.
A
tRNA
B
mRNA
C
DNA
D
rRNA
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Each tRNA contains a set of three nucleotides called an anticodon. The anticodon of a given tRNA can bind to one or a few specific mRNA codons. The tRNA molecule also carries an amino acid: specifically, the one encoded by the codons that the tRNA binds.

Detailed explanation-2: -An anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence located at one end of a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule, which is complementary to a corresponding codon in a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.

Detailed explanation-3: -The amino acid codon table tells us that GAC codes for aspartic acid. As a result, aspartic acid will be carried by the tRNA.

Detailed explanation-4: -Listen to pronunciation. (uh-MEE-noh A-sid SEE-kwents) The arrangement of amino acids in a protein. Proteins can be made from 20 different kinds of amino acids, and the structure and function of each protein are determined by the kinds of amino acids used to make it and how they are arranged.

Detailed explanation-5: -For example, if the mRNA codon is for tryptophan (UGG), the tRNA complementary anticodon (ACC) binds to it, bringing tryptophan with it. During elongation, tRNA acts as a helper molecule that carries specific amino acids to the mRNA-ribosome complex.
