What is the role of RNA in protein synthesis in plants?
Correct Answer: RNA ka role protein synthesis mein messenger aur translator ka hota hai.
Step 1: Understand that RNA is a type of molecule found in cells.
Step 2: Know that there are different types of RNA, but the two main types involved in protein synthesis are messenger RNA (mRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA).
Step 3: mRNA is created from DNA in a process called transcription. It carries the genetic information needed to make a protein.
Step 4: mRNA travels from the nucleus (where DNA is) to the ribosome (the site of protein synthesis).
Step 5: At the ribosome, tRNA helps translate the information in mRNA into a specific sequence of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins.
Step 6: Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and matches it to the corresponding codon (three-letter code) on the mRNA.
Step 7: As tRNA brings amino acids to the ribosome, they are linked together to form a protein.
