Anticodon is an unpaired triplet of bases in an exposed position of

1. mRNA
2. rRNA
3. tRNA
4. sRNA

Correct answer: tRNA

Solution

The anticodon is a three-base sequence found on transfer RNA, where it base-pairs with the complementary codon on mRNA during protein synthesis. This pairing helps ensure the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.
