rna
explain the roles of mrna and trna in protein
synthesis.
done
mRNA (messenger RNA) carries the genetic code from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. It serves as a template for protein synthesis. tRNA (transfer RNA) brings amino acids to the ribosomes. Each tRNA has an anticodon that pairs with a codon on mRNA, ensuring the correct amino acid is added to the growing protein chain.
