Question

Match the types of RNAs with their corresponding functions.

$\begin{array}{cccc}& \text{Types of RNA}& & \text{Functions}\\ \text{i}& \text{Transfer}& \text{a}& \text{Performs protein synthesis}\\ \text{ii}& \text{Messenger}& \text{b}& \text{Carries amino acid to the ribosome}\\ \text{iii}& \text{Ribosomal}& \text{c}& \text{Carries information for protein synthesis}\end{array}$

• A. i-c, ii-a, iii-b
• B. i-b, ii-c, iii-a
• C. i-a, ii-c, iii-b
• D. i-b, ii-a, iii-c

Answer 1

The correct option is B i-b, ii-c, iii-a

• Transfer RNA (tRNA) is the RNA molecule present in cytoplasm of cells. It carries amino acid to ribosomes for protein synthesis.
• Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is the RNA molecule which is a component of the ribosome. It helps in the function of protein synthesis.
• Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the RNA molecule that carries the information for protein synthesis from the nucleus to the ribosomes.
