What is the relationship between the codon and the anticodon? • The codon is part of the mRNA and the anticodon, which is identical to the codon, is part of
the tRNA.

• The codon and anticodon are complementary free nucleotides in the cytoplasm. They will be
joined as the protein is synthesized.

•The codon is part of the tRNA, and it is complementary to the anticodon, which is part of the
mRNA

•The codon is a set of three nucleotides found in the mRNA sequence. The anticodon is the
complementary triplet found as part of the tRNA molecule

• The codon is part of the mRNA, and its complement, the anticodon, is the part of the DNA that
it was transcribed from.
