Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

mRNA (messenger RNA) carries information from DNA to the ribosome for the synthesis of proteins.

Answer: B
 tRNA (transfer RNA) interprets the nucleic acid information carried by mRNA into the correct sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis.

Answer: C
 rRNA (ribosomal RNA) forms the structure of the ribosome and facilitates protein synthesis.

Answer: D
 Xist RNA is a type of non-coding RNA that is responsible for chromosome inactivation in females.

Answer: E
 snRNA (small nuclear RNA) is involved in splicing, the process by which introns are removed from pre-mRNA, and exons are joined together.

Answer: G
 miRNA (microRNA) and siRNA (small interfering RNA) are involved in the regulation of cellular processes such as development, differentiation, and apoptosis. They can negatively regulate gene expression by binding to mRNA and promoting its degradation or inhibiting its translation.
