Answer:
The nucleotide sequence of a DNA codon is TAG. In an mRNA molecule transcribed from this DNA, the codon has the sequence 5'-<u>AUC-3'</u>. In the process of protein synthesis, a transfer RNA pairs with the mRNA codon. The nucleotide sequence of the tRNA anticodon is <u>3'-UAG-5'</u>. The amino acid attached to the tRNA is <u>Isoleucine</u>.
Explanation:
In the process of protein synthesis the mRNA contains the sequence of nucleotides —transcribed from the DNA— that defines the sequence of amino acids that a synthesized protein will have.
Codons are triplets of nitrogenous bases present in mRNA, which encode an amino acid, as well as the start and end of protein synthesis.
Anticodons correspond to triplets of bases present in transfer RNA (tRNA), which correspond with mRNA codons. tRNA is responsible for coupling amino acids to the polypeptide chain being synthesized. In view of this:
<em>- DNA triplet: TAG</em>
<em>- Codon mRNA: 5'-AUC-3'
</em>
<em>- Anticodon tRNA: 3'-UAG-5'</em>
<em>- Amino acid: Isoleucine</em>
B. To explain how things work
Diploid cells contain 2 sets of the same DNA where as haploid contains one set.....so our normal cells in our body (somatic cells) are diploid however our sex cells(gametic cells) which are the egg of a woman and sperm from a guy are only haploid which means they have only 1 copy of DNA......this is because they fuse with one another and add their DNA together to make a diploid cell
It should be 3! That is the only logical answer to the question...
