Each type of tRna carries a specific amino acid at one end, and at the far-side 'presents' a triplet codon to the complementary triplet codon in the [being translated] mRna which is embedded in a specific channel in the Ribosomes. These amino acids are sequentially added to the growing, nascent protein chain.
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries amino acids to the ribosomes, to enable the ribosomes to put this amino acid on the protein that is being synthesized as an elongating chain of amino acid residues, using the information on the mRNA to "know" which amino acid should be put on next. For each kind of amino acid, there is a specific tRNA that will recognize the amino acid and transport it to the protein that is being synthesized, and tag it on to the protein once the information on the mRNA calls for it.
Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules carry specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each tRNA molecule has an anticodon that base pairs with the complementary codon on the mRNA, ensuring the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.

The step in protein synthesis where RNA directs the synthesis of a polypeptide or protein is called?
Translation. During translation, the information from messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to synthesize a specific polypeptide by ribosomes with the help of transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules, ultimately leading to the production of a protein.
What are three types of RNA molecules?
Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis. Transfer RNA (tRNA) transports amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a component of the ribosome and plays a structural and catalytic role in protein synthesis in the ribosome.
True or false each transfer rna molecule picks up one kind of protein?
False. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules do not pick up proteins. Instead, tRNA molecules carry specific amino acids that correspond to the codons on mRNA during protein synthesis.
What molecule caries an amino acid to the site of protein synthesis?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries an amino acid to the site of protein synthesis on the ribosome. Each tRNA molecule has a specific amino acid attached to it and matches with the corresponding codon on the messenger RNA (mRNA) during protein synthesis.
Why must RNA be made during protein synthesis?
RNA is required during protein synthesis because it serves as the intermediary between DNA, where genetic information is stored, and proteins, which perform cellular functions. Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the genetic code from DNA to ribosomes, where proteins are synthesized. Transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA) also play essential roles in facilitating protein synthesis.
WHAT DOES During protein synthesis messengers RNA?
Messenger RNA molecules are fed through the ribosomes during protein synthesis.
Amino acids are picked up by special RNA molecules called?
transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules. These molecules have a specific sequence that matches with the codons on messenger RNA (mRNA) to ensure the correct amino acid is added during protein synthesis.
How do you find the amino acid?
Amino acids make up proteins. During translation of protein synthesis, transfer RNA molecules carry amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome to be inserted into the protein being made.
The step in protein synthesis where RNA directs the synthesis of a polypeptide or protein is called?
Translation. During translation, the information from messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to synthesize a specific polypeptide by ribosomes with the help of transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules, ultimately leading to the production of a protein.
What molecule brings a specific amino acid to the ribosome during protein synthesis?
transfer RNA
In protein synthesis the anticodons are found on the?
The anticodons are found on tRNA molecules. tRNA molecules bring specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each tRNA molecule has an anticodon region that is complementary to the codon on mRNA.
What are three types of RNA molecules?
Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis. Transfer RNA (tRNA) transports amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a component of the ribosome and plays a structural and catalytic role in protein synthesis in the ribosome.
Carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and has an anticodon sequence that base pairs with the mRNA codon, ensuring the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.
True or false each transfer rna molecule picks up one kind of protein?
False. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules do not pick up proteins. Instead, tRNA molecules carry specific amino acids that correspond to the codons on mRNA during protein synthesis.
What molecule caries an amino acid to the site of protein synthesis?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries an amino acid to the site of protein synthesis on the ribosome. Each tRNA molecule has a specific amino acid attached to it and matches with the corresponding codon on the messenger RNA (mRNA) during protein synthesis.
Molecules bring to the ribosomes?
Messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules bring the genetic code from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring amino acids to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. Ribosomes use these molecules to build proteins according to the mRNA code.
What molecules contain the codons?
Codons are found in mRNA molecules, which are transcribed from DNA molecules during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a signal for the start or end of protein synthesis.
