Question

TRNA molecules deliver amino acids to ribosomes where the amino acid next

Answer 1

Answer:

tRNA molecules deliver amino acids to ribosomes where the amino acid next becomes an anticodon (option C).

Explanation:

A tRNA molecule is able to deliver amino acids to the ribosomes for protein synthesis, forming an anticodon that complements the codon of the mRNA being translated. The mRNA molecules are responsible for conducting the genetic code —obtained from DNA transcription— to be translated by the ribosomes. This code is established by sequences of three nucleotides, called codons, which encode different amino acids.

What happens when mRNA molecules expose codons to ribosomes is that a tRNA molecule containing a complementary anticodon is formed, which is conducted to the ribosome to bind to the codon. This allows, according to the genetic code, the formation of a protein with a specific sequence of amino acids.
