In solving these kinds of problems, you should always remember the complementary base pairing rule.
DNA
The nucleotide bases are Adenine(A), Thymine (T), Guanine(G), and Cytosine(C).
According to Chargaff's rule, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine should be paired with Guanine.
General base-pairing rule: A = T and G = C
mRNA
Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the starting point of translation in which the DNA is transcribed into mRNA.
Bases are group into three, which is called a codon. A codon represents a specific amino acid.
The nucleotide bases present in mRNA are Adenine(A), Guanine(G), Cytosine(C), and instead of Thymine, it was replaced by the Uracil (U).
The base-pairing rule is: A = U and G = C.
tRNA
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is complementary to mRNA in which the bases represent an anticodon.
The function of tRNA is to carry the amino acids to the ribosome so that the protein synthesis will occur.
The base-pairing rule is: A =U and G = C.
Amino Acids (AA)
Amino acids are the code represented by a specific codon in the mRNA.
You can identify the amino acid by using the genetic code table.
Note: The answer for number 4 may vary because the only given is the amino acids. There are some cases where one or more codons represent single amino acids. I'll attach a sample of the genetic code table as your reference.
