Match the following.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

tRNA (transfer RNA) contains a single anticodon that pairs with a specific codon on mRNA during translation to determine which amino acid should be added to the growing polypeptide chain. rRNA (ribosomal RNA) makes up the structure of ribosomes and is involved in protein synthesis, but does not contain anticodons. mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis, but does not contain anticodons. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) carries the genetic information for the organism, but does not contain anticodons.
