It can. If the codon has an "A," then its anticodon must have a "T."

What is the tRNA anticodon for T-A-C?

The tRNA anticodon for TAC would be AUG. However, tRNA does not transcribe DNA and would not come in contact with the nitrogen base thymine. A better question would be what is the tRNA anticodon for the mRNA codon UAC.


1 Which one What nucleotide pair bonds would be found in a DNA molecule?

Guanine an thymine


Which molecules would bond to adenine within the adenine nucleotide?

Adenine pairs with Thymine by a double hydrogen bond


What nucleotide pais bonds would be found in the DNA molecule?

DNA base pair are Cytosine with Guanine and Thymine with Adenine.


What are the 5 nucleotides that make up DNA and rna?

adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T) are the four nitrogen bases of DNA. In RNA, instead of Thymine (T), it would Uracil(U). So when you transcript a DNA into an RNA, T would be U.


What anticodon pairs with the codon gau?

The anticodon would be CUA


What is a nucleotide substitution error?

Before you know what a nucleotide substitution error is, you have to know what a nucleotide is. A nucleotide holds the DNA strand together and helps make copies. When a Strand is ready to be copied, Let's say one nucleotide reads for G(Guanine), then another nucleotide would be added, which would mean C (Cytosine) would be added. A substitution error would mean that, that instead of Cytosine being added, Thymine, Adenine, Uracil, or Guanine could be added, resulting in a mutation.


Because of specific base pairing if one side of the DNA molecule had the nucleotide sequence adenine-guanine-adenine-cytosine-thymine the other side would be?

thymine, cytosine, thymine, guanine, adenine *HINT* "A" goes with "T" always and "C" goes with "G" always


Is a trna anticodon more similar to DNA or RNA in nucleotide sequence?

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.


What is the anticodon for cgc?

The matching anticodon for GCA would be CGU.


What is the anticodon for CGA?

A pairs with T so the anticodon would be TTT


What is the monomeric unit for nucleic acids?

It would be a nucleotide. Either thymine, cytosine, alanine, guanine, or uracil.
