Answer:
The way to find a codon is by arranging the sequence of nitrogenous bases of the mRNA in groups of three, the triplets. Once the codon is found, the anticodon corresponds to a complementary triplet to that codon.
Explanation:
Codon corresponds to a triplet of mRNA nitrogen bases encoding an amino acid. Anticodon is responsible for carrying amino acids to the ribosome, according to the information of the mRNA, and the sequence of its triple must be complementary to that of the codon mRNA.
If, for example, a codon of the mRNA is AUG, its anticodon of the tRNA must be UAC, that is, complementary. Then, for the indicated exercises:

Answer:
The correct answer will be option-E
Explanation:
Hershey and Chase's experiment was performed to test whether DNA serves as the genetic material or protein.
To perform experiment they grew bacteriophage into radiolabeled phosphorus and sulfur compounds. The phosphorus is an integral part of the structure of DNA whereas proteins contain sulfur in their structure.
In the given condition if radiolabeled nitrogen is utilized then the experiment will fail as the structure of proteins also contains an amino group( NH₂) in their structure as well as DNA. The scientist will not be able to identify whether the DNA is the genetic material or protein.
Thus, option-E is the correct answer.
Answer:
Trapezius.
Explanation:
Sternocleidomastoid muscles may be defined as one of the largest superficial cervical muscle. The main function of this muscle is the neck flexion and the head rotation.
Trapezius muscle is the large muscle that extend from the occipital bone. The main function of the trapezius muscle is the scapula movement and support of the arm. Trapezium muscle resist the neck flexion and works as the antagonist to the trapezius muscle.
Thus, the answer is trapezius.
