The protein called elongation factor assists the tRNA in binding to the exposed _ at the _:
Correct answer: A. mRNA codon, A-site
- A. mRNA codon, A-site
- B. mRNA codon, P-site
- C. rRNA, A-site
- D. rRNA, P-Site
Explanation
Elongation factors are sets of proteins that are used in protein synthesis in the process of the cell cycle and elongation in some cells. In the ribosome, they facilitate translational elongation, from the formation of the first peptide bond to the formation of the last one. Each time, tRNA is guided to enter on site A.

About Chromosomes
Chromosomes are DNA-protein structures that carry genes and become visible during cell division. Coverage includes chromatin, centromeres, sister chromatids, homologous chromosomes, chromosome number, and the distinction between diploid and haploid cells, with links to DNA replication, mitosis and meiosis.
