Question

During translation, what is the role of tRNA? (1 point)

Transports amino acids to the ribosome for protein
assembly
Converts mRNA into functional protein
Copies the DNA code into mRNA
Regulates the rate of protein synthesis

Answer 1

During translation, the role of tRNA (transfer RNA) is to transport amino acids to the ribosome for protein assembly. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid to the growing polypeptide chain according to the codon sequence on the mRNA (messenger RNA).
