Anticodon is present on
A. mRNA
B. tRNA
C. rRNA
D. DNA
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Anticodon is present on tRNA.An anticodon is a trinucleotide sequence located at one end of a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule, which is complementary to a corresponding codon in a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence.
Anticodons are found on molecules of tRNA. Their function is to base pair with the codon on a strand of mRNA during translation. This action ensures that the correct amino acid will be added to the growing polypeptide chain. A tRNA molecule will enter the ribosome bound to an amino acid.
