Lesson 3: Protein Synthesis

Question 12 • CA-Biology A-CR

What is the function of tRNA?

Answer
A
to code for protein synthesis
B
to carry the synthesized genetic information from the nucleus to the ribosomes
C
to synthesize proteins from RNA
D
to bring amino acids to the ribosomes to be assembled into proteins

Explanation

Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Its anticodon pairs with a matching codon on messenger RNA, helping place each amino acid in the correct order. Therefore, the correct choice is to bring amino acids to the ribosomes to be assembled into proteins.
