Which of the following describes the interactions between a codon and an anticodon?
A. A codon and an anticodon become covalently bonded together due to the activity of the ribosome.
B. A codon and anticodon do not come into direct contact because codons are in the nucleus but anticodons are in the cytoplasm.
C. A codon and anticodon are attracted to each other due to hydrogen bonding.
D. A codon and an anticodon are linked together by an amino acid.
..
During translation, the codon in mRNA is actually “read” by
a. the A site in the ribosome.

c. the anticodon in a tRNA.
d. the anticodon in an amino acid.
The anticodon
a. is present in the tRNA and complementary to the codon in mRNA
b. is present in the mRNA and binds to the codon
c. is present in the tRNA and complementary to the amino acid
