Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules are responsible for carrying amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. The tRNA molecules have an anticodon sequence that matches with the codon sequence on the messenger RNA (mRNA), ensuring that the correct amino acid is added to the growing protein chain. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a component of the ribosome, and ribozymes are RNA molecules that can act as enzymes. Primer RNA is not involved in protein synthesis.
