The answer is c - is a triplet code that codes for a specific amino acid. tRNA molecules have the anticodon embedded hence they can match up with mRNA due to the complementary nature of RNAs

The correct answer is C.

The sequence of three bases which codes for a specified amino acid.


Codon is termed as sequence of three RNA nucleotides which corresponds with specific amino acid which stops signaling during protein synthesis.


It is represented as RNA codon reason being that, when proteins are made in cell by ribosomes. mRNA directs protein synthesis and it is determined by sequence of genomic DNA.

In order for this code to represent a piece of DNA, which base must be replaced by thymine?
HACTEHA [7]
I guess you forgot to add the picture or so.
Based on the Complementarity of the 4 nucleotides, The thymine must always be placed in  front of the Adenine, and the Cytosine must always be placed in front of the Guanine.
Any change in this rule causes the deformation of the DNA, and can sometimes cause fatal diseases like the melanoma (skin cancer) etc...

Hope this Helps! :)
