Transfer RNA

When the RNA gets to the ribosomes, which molecule transfers to the mRNA to amino acids?

• DNA

• mRNA

• tRNA

• Replicated RNA

tRNA molecules match the mRNA codons with a(n):

• Codon

• Anti-Codon

• Intron

• Methylated Cap

Using the the codon chart, what amino acids will tRNA bring to the ribosome based on the codons on the following mRNA

• MET-PRO-STOP

• IIE-PRO-TYR

• THR-ARG-SER

• MET-THR-STOP

Letter D represents TRNA. Which of the following explains the function of TRNA

• Brings specific amino acids to the ribosomes

• Brings DNA instruction to the ribosomes in the form of codons

• Acts as an enzyme and replicates DNA

• Brings proteins to the Ribosomes

Which of the following is the sugar found in RNA?

• Ribose

• Maltose

• Amylose

What is the primary function of transfer RNA (tRNA) in protein synthesis?

• To carry amino acids to the ribosome

• To transcribe DNA into mRNA

• To form the structure of ribosomes

• To catalyze peptide bond formation

Which part of the tRNA molecule pairs with the mRNA during translation?

• Anticodon

• Codon

• Ribosome binding site

• Promoter

How does tRNA become charged with an amino acid?

• Through the action of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase

• By direct binding to the ribosome

• By transcription from DNA

• By translation from mRNA
