Question

which mrna codon, trna anticodon, and amino acid correspond to the dna sequence tac? use complementary base pairing and this codon chart to answer the question. write the amino acid using its three - letter abbreviation. write stop for a stop codon. dna sequence tac mrna codon trna anticodon amino acid

Explanation:

Step1: Find mRNA from DNA

DNA: TAC → mRNA: AUG (A↔U, T↔A, C↔G)

Step2: Find tRNA from mRNA

mRNA: AUG → tRNA: UAC (complementary base pairing)

Step3: Match mRNA to amino acid

Use codon chart: AUG = methionine (Met)

Answer:

mRNA codon: AUG
tRNA anticodon: UAC
amino acid: Met
