Expert Solution
Step 1

 

Codon is the set of three nucleotides that are present in DNA or RNA that codes specific amino acids or stops the translation by terminating the genes. These are made up of nitrogenous bases Adenine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil.

Anticodon is a set of trinucleotide sequences that is complementary to the corresponding codon in messenger RNA. The anticodon is present at the end of mRNA.
