Video transcript

Hello everyone. And in today's video we have a very short problem. So let's jump straight into it. We have that the anti cotton on T. RNA that binds to a particular M. RNA coding is see you a remember that this is the T. RNA anti cotton and not the M. RNA anti code. In in case you got confused by that you need to identify the M. RNA coding that is corresponding to these anti cotton. And so before we jump into a problem remember that we're dealing with RNA here in RNA. There is no timing. We have your cell instead. So remember that in terms of the nucleotides present. Well remember also there are four types of nucleotides. We have adenine which is complementary to Bureau cell in R. N. A. And we have silence in which is complementary to wanting in RNA. So all we have to do is write down these anti code in and basically right down the complementary nucleotides that belong to it. So the complementary nucleotides would be according to this would be wanting, pardon me any years old. And this will be the final answer which is going to be answer choice B will be the final answer to our question. And I really hope this video helped you
