Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the role of ribosomal RNA (rRNA)?
  • Step 1: Understand that ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a type of RNA found in cells.
  • Step 2: Know that rRNA is a key component of ribosomes, which are the cell's protein-making machines.
  • Step 3: Learn that ribosomes read messenger RNA (mRNA), which carries the instructions for making proteins.
  • Step 4: Realize that rRNA helps to assemble amino acids into proteins based on the instructions from mRNA.
  • Step 5: Conclude that without rRNA, the process of translating mRNA into proteins would not happen effectively.
