Q
Q: What is the role of tRNA in protein synthesis?
Solution:
tRNA (transfer RNA) transports amino acids to the ribosome, where they are assembled into proteins according to the sequence of mRNA.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that proteins are made up of building blocks called amino acids.
Step 2: Know that tRNA stands for transfer RNA.
Step 3: Realize that tRNA's job is to carry amino acids to a part of the cell called the ribosome.
Step 4: Learn that the ribosome reads a message called mRNA (messenger RNA) to know the order of amino acids needed.
Step 5: Understand that tRNA matches its amino acid to the corresponding code on the mRNA.
Step 6: Finally, the ribosome links the amino acids together to form a protein.
