Which of following best describes the two-step process for adding amino acids to tRNAs?
AA = amino acid, Pi = phosphate, PPi = pyrophosphate
A) AA + ATP → AA − P + ADP; AA − P + tRNA → AA − tRNA + Pi
B) AA + ATP → AA − AMP + PPi; AA − AMP + tRNA → AA − tRNA + AMP
C) tRNA + ATP → tRNA − P + ADP; tRNA − P + AA → AA − tRNA + Pi
