Single-stranded RNA can fold back on itself, creating three-dimensional structures such as tRNA.The folds are stabilized by _______ bonds.
A) hydrogen
B) ionic
C) phosphodiester
D) peptide
E) glycosidic

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydrogen bonds are responsible for stabilizing the three-dimensional structure of single-stranded RNA, including tRNA. Ionic bonds, phosphodiester bonds, peptide bonds, and glycosidic bonds do not contribute to RNA folding in the same way.
