What are codon and anticodons?

Codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on mRNA. Anti codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on tRNA.The codons are for the traslation of mRNa to an amino acid sequence by using ribosomes.


What are the complement of the codons and are found on the opposite side of he rna?

tRNA (or transfer RNA) molecules contain an anti-codon loop that contains within it a triplet complementary nucleotide sequence to that of the codon. This triplet is called the anti-codon


What is the relationship between codons and anticodons?

A codon is found in the DNA sequence and in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the opposite sequence that would match with the sequence of the codon and allows pairing of the anticodon with the codon

What is a Complimentary codon?

A complimentary codon is one that pairs with another codon according to the base pairing rule. For example, the DNA codon ATG is complimentary to the mRNA codon UAC.
