D) mRNA
E) miRNA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

tRNA (transfer RNA) molecules transport amino acids to the ribosome during translation. They have an anticodon sequence that binds to the complementary codon sequence on the mRNA, allowing the correct amino acid to be added to the growing protein chain. rRNA (ribosomal RNA) is a component of the ribosome itself and helps to catalyze peptide bond formation during translation. siRNA and miRNA are involved in gene regulation, not translation. mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome and is translated into protein by tRNA molecules.
