There is a tRNA with anticodon UAC. If we apply the wobble hypothesis, then this tRNA can decode which
of these codons?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
It can decode AUG but not AUC, AUU and AUA
Option C (It can decode AUG but not AUC, AUU and AUA) is correct because, according to the wobble hypothesis, UAC can only decode AUG. The wobble base is the 3' base of the codon and the 5' base of the anticodon.
