Solution

The correct option is D both (a) and (c).
During translation, a (RNA is specifically linked to an amino acid, this process takes place under the direction of an enzyme, amino acyl tRNA synthetase that is extremely specific, i.e., recognises only one amino acid. (RNA complexed with amino acid is called as charged tRNA. The process is referred to a charging or aminoacylation of tRNA.
