mRNA is short lived and used solely as a template for protein synthesis, it consists of triplets of bases ("codons") to which the complementary tRNA triplets ("anticodons") match up to. For example, if an mRNA codon was A U G, then the complementary tRNA anticodon would be U A C.
tRNA are clover/cross-shaped chains of RNA that have an active "anticodon" at one end, and an attached animo acod at the other end, that corresponds to the anticodon. This means that when the anticodon of the tRNA matches with the complementary codon of the mRNA, the amino acid added to the protein chain is always the same one for those given codons.
rRNA is a massive molecule consisting of two parts; a small section, and a large section. It is between these two sections that the mRNA fits, and into the large lecton that the tRNA complexes (with attached amino acids) are taken. rRNA molecules have two main binding sites. When a tRNA molecule is bound, the mRNA molecule moves along one space, and another tRNA molecule binds. When this happens, the amino acids at the ends of the tRNA molecules are very close together, and a peptide bond forms. The mRNA then moves along again and the first tRNA molecule breaks away. This is translation.
Hope this helps :)

How many different RNA are found in cells?
There are three main types of RNA found in cells: messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). These RNA molecules play crucial roles in protein synthesis and gene expression within cells.

What is the three main types of RNA?
The three main types of RNA are messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). mRNA carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes for protein synthesis. tRNA helps to bring amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. rRNA makes up the structure of ribosomes where protein synthesis occurs.
The Cell uses three forms of RNA in the process of DNA replication?
Ribosomal RNA, Transfer RNA, and Messenger RNA
There are three different forms of RNA?
Messanger RNA - Molecule in cells that carries codes from the DNA in the nucleus to the sites of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm (the ribosomes).Ribosomal RNA - Molecule in cells that forms part of the protein-synthesizing organelle known as a ribosome and that is exported to the cytoplasm to help translate the information in messenger RNA (mRNA) into protein.Transfer RNA - Small molecule in cells that carries amino acids to organelles called ribosomes.
What are two types of RNA?
There are actually three types of RNA.The transfer RNA (tRNA), which delivers the anticodon and the amino acid,The messenger RNA (mRNA), which contains the codonThe ribosomal RNA (rRNA), which combines with proteins to form the ribosome.
