Q. The RNA that pick up specific amino acid from amino acid pool in the cytoplasm to ribosome during protein synthesis is called

A) rRNA
B) RNA
C) mRNA
D) tRNA.
Explanation

Transfer RNA or tRNA help in transfer of amino acids to ribosomes. mRNA complex to form the polypeptide chain. It has four key regions a carrier and recognition end, enzyme site and ribosome site. This recognition end has three anticodons with the help of which amino acids are identified. rRNA forms 67% of 70S ribosomes and 50% of 80S ribosomes. mRNA carries the coded information from DNA for the synthesis of proteins.
