Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the function of tRNA during translation?
  • Step 1: Understand that tRNA stands for transfer RNA.
  • Step 2: Know that tRNA is a type of molecule found in cells.
  • Step 3: Learn that during translation, tRNA's job is to bring amino acids to the ribosome.
  • Step 4: Recognize that amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
  • Step 5: Realize that the ribosome is the place where proteins are made.
  • Step 6: Understand that tRNA matches its specific amino acid to the corresponding codon on the mRNA.
  • Step 7: Know that as tRNA brings amino acids, they are linked together to form a polypeptide chain, which eventually becomes a protein.
