How many amnio acids are attached to a single transfer rna?

A single transfer RNA (tRNA) carries a single amino acid.


What are the transporters of the amino acids?

tRNA help to transfer amino acids


What are the functions of tRNA?

tRNA- is a cloverleaf shaped single strand that carries amino acids to the ribosomes and helps to assemble them in the correct order.


Is an amino acid a mRNA or tRNA?

An amino acid is not mRNA or tRNA. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, while mRNA carries the genetic information from DNA to the ribosome to be translated into a protein, and tRNA is responsible for bringing specific amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.


How many amino acids can trna pick up?

One at a time.


How many amino acids are attached to a single transfer rna-?

A single transfer RNA molecule typically carries one specific amino acid attached to it. This amino acid is linked to the tRNA through an ester bond between the carboxyl group of the amino acid and the 3' end of the tRNA.


What types of RNA brings the amino acids to the ribosomes?

The type of RNA that brings amino acids to the ribosomes is TRNA or Transfer RNA.


Why are amino acids which compliment mRNA called tRNA?

Amino acids are not called tRNA. tRNA molecules carry amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. A tRNA molecule has a 3-base anticodon that is complimentary to a apecific mRNA codon, which allows the tRNA to place the amino acid in the correct sequence.


What molecule transports amino acids?

tRNA


The structure that carries amino acids to the ribosome?

The structure that carries amino acids to the ribosome is called transfer RNA (tRNA). Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and binds to the corresponding mRNA codon on the ribosome during protein synthesis.


What does tRNA carry from the cytoplasm to the ribosomes-?

Transfer RNA brings or transfers amino acids to the ribosome that correspond to each three-nucleotide codon of rRNA. The amino acids then can be joined together and processed to make polypeptides and proteins.


What picks up amino acids in the cytoplasm and moves them to the ribosomes?

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is responsible for picking up amino acids in the cytoplasm and transferring them to the ribosomes during protein synthesis. The tRNA's anticodon region specifically base-pairs with the codon on the mRNA to ensure the correct amino acid is added to the growing protein chain.
