Question

An rna molecule is looking for a job in a protein synthesis factory. it asks you to write its resume. this rna molecule is not yet specialized and could, with some structural changes, function as mrna, rrna, and trna. write a resume for this molecule that reflects the capabilities of each type of rna.

Answer 1

For the answer to the question above, the mRNA stands for messenger RNA. The job of the messenger RNA is to copy the code from the DNA and go through a ribosome so a protein can be created.

rRNA stands or ribosomal RNA. It is essentially the ribosome and is comprised of the large and small subunit. The rRNA allows the mRNA to go through rRNA in order to create the amino acid chain.

tRNA stands for transfer RNA. tRNA brings amino acids to the coordinating codon on the mRNA and matches it to the correct codon.
