Question

which molecule brings amino acids to the ribosomes to be assembled into proteins?
○ trna
○ mrna
○ peptide
○ codon

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In protein synthesis, tRNA (transfer RNA) has the function of bringing specific amino acids to the ribosomes. mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic code from DNA to the ribosome. A peptide is a short chain of amino acids (part of the protein being assembled, not the carrier). A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides on mRNA that codes for an amino acid, not a molecule that brings amino acids. So tRNA is the molecule that brings amino acids to ribosomes for protein assembly.

Answer:

A. tRNA
