Q
Q: What is the role of tRNA in translation?
Solution:
tRNA (transfer RNA) carries specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation, matching them to the codons on the mRNA.
Steps: 7
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that translation is the process where proteins are made from mRNA.
Step 2: Know that mRNA is a copy of the genetic information that tells how to build a protein.
Step 3: Learn that tRNA (transfer RNA) is a type of RNA that helps in this process.
Step 4: Recognize that each tRNA carries a specific amino acid, which is a building block of proteins.
Step 5: Understand that tRNA has a part called an anticodon that matches with the codons on the mRNA.
Step 6: Realize that when the tRNA matches its anticodon with the mRNA codon, it brings the correct amino acid to the ribosome.
Step 7: Know that the ribosome is the place where proteins are assembled, using the amino acids brought by tRNA.
