Anticodons are sequences of three base pairs on a transfer RNA that correspond to (and subsequently pair up with) codons on messenger RNAs. These complementary pairs come together by forming hydrogen bonds. For example, a tRNA with the anticodon UUU may correspond to the codon AAA on the mRNA.
A codon is the triplet sequence in the messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript which specifies a corresponding amino acid (or a start or stop command). An anticodon is the corresponding triplet sequence on the transfer RNA (tRNA) which brings in the specific amino acid to the ribosome during translation. The anticodon is complementary to the codon, that is, if the codon is AUU, then the anticodon is UAA. There are no T (Thymine) nitrogen bases in mRNA. It's replaced by U (Uracil).
The question has its answer, tRNA is a type of "RNA" so they would not be expected to be similar to DNA. Anticodon is just a three nucleotide in the tRNA (like codons in mRNA.DNA is a -deoxy ribose (oxygen is removed at 2' position) containing polymer and RNA doesnt have -deoxy but only the normal oxy (oxygen is not removed) sugar. so chemically or biophysically, they cant be as same as DNA.
The anticodon is a sequence of three unpaired nucleotides in transfer RNA, which can bind through base pairing, to the complementary triplet of nucleotides, or codon in a messenger RNA molecule. The codon makes up the genetic code, the anticodon makes the amino acid.
Each tRNA molecule contains three bases called an anticodon. The tRNA anticodons are complementary to specific mRNA codons. This is how the amino acids are placed in the proper order on the ribosome.

The complement of the codon is the anticodon.

i think its an anticodon for tRNA
called CODON.

The matching anticodon for GCA would be CGU.

The anticodon of GCA ia CGU. The anticodon is the sequence of nucleotides on transfer RNA that matches with and transiently binds to the codons on the mRNA during protein synthesis.
