    Codon: 3'-CGC-5'

    Codon: 3'-UGC-5'

    Explanation:

    The anticodons of tRNAs bind to the complementary codons of mRNA. The mRNA codons are always read in 5' to 3' direction. The 5' base of an mRNA codon pairs with 3' base of the anticodon of tRNAs. The first base of the anticodon (the 5' base) determines the number of mRNA codons that are recognized by the tRNA. When the 5' base of the tRNA anticodon is U or G, it binding with codon is less specific. A tRNA anticodon with 5' G base can read two different codons.

    Anticodon: 5'-GCG-3'.

    Codon: 3'-CGC-5'

    Codon: 3'-UGC-5'
