It comprises about 10 to 20% of the cellular RNA:
Correct answer: B. tRNA
- A. mRNA
- B. tRNA
- C. rRNA
- D. snRNA
Explanation
Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a type of RNA (ribonucleic acid) molecule that plays a vital role in the process of protein synthesis within cells. tRNA acts as a translator between the nucleotide language of mRNA (messenger RNA) and the amino acid language of proteins. Its primary function is to bring the appropriate amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.

About Biological Molecules
The chapter covers water's polarity and biological roles, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, including their monomers, bonds, structures and functions. It also distinguishes RNA from DNA and explains conjugated molecules such as glycoproteins, glycolipids and nucleoproteins, which combine organic molecules with a non-protein component.
