What does tRNA do during translation?

• it brings a specific segment of DNA to the ribosome for transcription

• it brings any amino acid to the ribosome

• it brings a specific amino acid (decided by the DNA) to the ribosome for translation

• it brings a specific amino acid (decided by the codon) to the ribosome for translation

Codons are located on....

• DNA

• mRNA

• tRNA

• rRNA
