Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The anticodon of a particular tRNA molecule is
A
complementary to the corresponding mRNA codon.
B
complementary to the corresponding triplet in rRNA.
C
the part of tRNA that bonds with a specific amino acid.
D
catalytic, making the tRNA a ribozyme.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The anticodon of the tRNA is complementary to the corresponding codon of the mRNA molecule. As a result, the tRNA binds to the mRNA codon through complementary base-pairing. Thus, the tRNA anticodon is complementary to the corresponding mRNA codon. Therefore, the given statement is true.

Detailed explanation-2: -Updated On: 27-06-2022. Anticodon present on tRNA complementary to initiator codon AUG of mRNA is UAG.
