    Can someone tell me why my answer gor question 3 went wrong even though inchose option c?…but i should say it was useful test..very nice…expecting more of such..for other subjects also….good luck!!!

      Simple,
      Anticodon loop is the structure on the t-rna which have 3 codon which binds to m-rna with opposite sequences.

      That region is actually called the ANTICODON LOOP . The t RNA have it’s anticodon loop attached with the ss m RNA. The bases (3 in number) at the anticodon loop are complementary with a triplet base (or codon) on the mRNA.
      I hope this answer helped u

      The sequence of 3 bases on mRNA is called codon. Its complimentary sequence on tRNA is called Anticodon.

    Sir,in question 14-isnt it one gene one enzyme hypothesis?

    nice questions.sir can you explain me ques no 04. Thankyou

      the question four which you asked to explain the meaning is that tRNA consists of three base and mRNA codon is anticodon so we can easily say that tRNA used for transfer thats why it contaion three base and mRNA is use only for anti codon now u got ur answer

        the region is cald anticodon..trna has got an anticodon loop which attaches d complementary codons of the particular codons of the required amino acid.. wenevr an amino acid gets attached to the amino acid atachment site of trna tht actualy means tht the requird triplet codon is there in ribosome which codes for tht particular amino acid of which the complementary base pairs are need to b attached to the anticodon loop the trna.. tht is why its cald an anticodon loop.. i hope its clear to u asma.. i gues shivam knws the reasn bt d way he wrote actualy confuses the thng more..:( sorry shivam.. bt al d best dear:):)

      codons r the that units which codes for A.ACID.complementary TO Mrna sequence it is called anti codon. eg. AUG Has anticodon UAC on trna

        DNA – code
        mRNA – codon
        tRNA – anticodon
