Question

Choose the correct answers from the alternatives given :
During protein synthesis, an anticodon on transfer RNA (tRNA) pairs with

• A. messenger RNA (mRNA) nucleotide bases
• B. ribosomal RNA (rRNA) nucleotide bases
• C. other tRNA nucleotide bases
• D. DNA nucleotide bases

Answer 1

The correct option is A messenger RNA (mRNA) nucleotide bases

Protein synthesis or translation process occurs when a triplet codon on the mRNA is identified and anticodon is called by transfer RNA. The specific amino acid concerned is synthesised which charges the tRNA and finally leads to the formation of a polypeptide chain or protein chain.

So, the correct option is 'messenger RNA (mRNA) nucleotide bases'.
