Vedclass · Answer

(C) In the genetic code,there are $64$ codons in total.Out of these $64$ codons,$3$ are stop codons $(UAA, UAG, UGA)$ which do not code for any amino acid.Therefore,there are $61$ codons that code for amino acids.Since each $t-RNA$ molecule has an anticodon that pairs with a specific codon on $mRNA$,there are $61$ types of $t-RNA$ molecules corresponding to the $61$ sense codons.

Column $I$ (Codons)	Column $II$ (Amino acids)
$(A)$ $UUU$	$(I)$ Serine
$(B)$ $GGG$	$(II)$ Methionine
$(C)$ $UCU$	$(III)$ Phenylalanine
$(D)$ $CCC$	$(IV)$ Glycine
$(E)$ $AUG$	$(V)$ Proline
