Question

structures of the cell quick check
if the sequence of bases on the mrna codon is auu, what would be the sequence of bases on the opposite strand assembled by the trna? (1 point)
uaa
uua
att
taa

Explanation:

In RNA - RNA base - pairing, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), and uracil (U) pairs with adenine (A). Given the mRNA codon AUU, the tRNA anticodon will have the complementary sequence. So, A in mRNA pairs with U in tRNA, U in mRNA pairs with A in tRNA, and U in mRNA pairs with A in tRNA.

Answer:

A. UAA
