The anticondon transfer RNA for the messenger RNA codon `G-C-A` is

Options

A. `T-G-A`
B. `G-U-T`
C. `A-G-T`
D. `C-G-U`

Answer

D

Explanation

The bases of messenger RNA are complementary to those of the DNA strand. Oppsoite each adenine (A) of DNA, there appears on RNA a uracil (U), opposite guanine (G) is Cytosine (C) , opposite cytosine (C) is guanine (G) and opposite Thymine (T) is Adenine (A) . thus, the anticondone of G-C-A would be C-G-U.
