Answer:  Acceptor stem and anticodon loop.

Explanation:

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a small RNA nucleic acid involved in protein synthesis (translation). Each tRNA molecule has two important areas:

  1. A region of trinucleotides, called the anticodon
  2. A region where a specific amino acid binds.

<u>During translation, the ribosome reads the sequence of the mRNA in groups of three bases to assemble the protein</u>. So, in the mRNA chain there are codons, set of three bases, which determine the amino acid to be added to the peptide chain. <u>The tRNA transfers the amino acid</u> to the ribosomes, and then arranges them along the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule. <u>Then, the tRNA must have an anticodon that is complementary to the codon.</u> Each type of tRNA is specifically combined with 1 of the 20 amino acids to be incorporated into proteins.

This means, during translation, each time an amino acid is added to the growing chain, <u>a tRNA molecule is formed whose base pairs have a complementary sequence with mRNA molecule</u>, ensuring that the appropriate amino acid is inserted into the protein. So, tRNA is a key link between RNA transcription and the translation of that RNA into protein. On the other hand, aminotransferases are enzymes responsible for attaching amino acids to the 3ʹ‐end of cognate tRNAs.

The acceptor stem is the site of attachment of amino acids to tRNA, and anticodon loop is the site of tRNA that is complementary to the codons found in mRNA (that determine the amino acid that will be added) This means, both parts are important for recognition, <u>because the acceptor stem is where the amino acid is, and the anticodon loop ensures that the appropriate amino acid is inserted into the protein</u>.

An intestinal hormone that stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreatic islet cells is?
slava [35]

Secretin is a hormone produced in the intestines that promote the release of insulin from pancreatic islet cells.

Discussion about secretin:

  • When fatty acids and acidic chyme are present, secretin is released. It performs a number of functions by attaching to secretin receptors, the majority of which are related to digestion and acid neutralization.
  • In its principal function, secretin tells the pancreas to release bicarbonate ions into the pancreatic juice, raising the pH to between 8 and 8.3 in order to neutralize the acidic chyme. The pancreatic juice's digesting enzymes may function at their best as a result, safeguarding the duodenum's lining.
  • Additionally, secretin controls the pyloric sphincter's tightness, gastrin release, HCl synthesis, and small intestine motility.

As a result, secretin also encourages the pancreas to produce more insulin in response to ingesting glucose.
