Solution

The correct option is A L shaped
The structure of tRNA can be decomposed into its primary structure, its secondary structure, and its tertiary structure - all tRNAs have a similar L-shaped 3D structure that allows them to fit into the P and A sites of the ribosome. The cloverleaf structure becomes the 3D L shaped structure through coaxial stacking of the helices, which is a common RNA tertiary structure.
