Solution

The correct option is C

Selection of amino acids


tRNA is a molecule which has an adapter arm and an anti-codon loop. It selects an amino acid according to the anti-codon present on it and brings it to the ribosome for elongation of a peptide chain. Thus, its function is the selection of amino acid.
