Solution

The correct option is C tRNA
Translation is the process of polymerization by which the triplet base sequence of a mRNA guides the linking of a specific sequence of amino acids to form a polypeptides (protein) on ribosomes. Each tRNA is specific to an amino acid, as tRNA are added to the sequence, amino acids are linked together by peptide bonds, eventually forming a protein that is later released by the tRNA.
So, the correct answer is 'tRNA'.
