Messenger RNA or mRNA comes from the gene. Gene is present in the chromosome of the cell. This messenger RNA comes with the sequence of amino acids codes. Also called as codons. The transfer RNA or tRNA brings in the amino acids. The messenger RNA directs the the type of amino acid, that has to be fixed in. The sequence of the amino acids is meticulously fallowed. If single amino acid is in short supply, then the entire chain is broken down. This is how you get the protein with specific sequence of the amino acids. The number of permutations and combinations of say 100 amino acids, is beyond the human brain to comprehend.
Amino acid tables are used to translate mRNA codons into amino acid sequences. They also tell whem mRNA codons produce stops.
Each codeword on mRNA corresponds with a single amino acid. However, There can be multiple codewords corresponding with the same amino acid.
AGT codes for the amino acid serine and CTT codes for the amino acid leucine.
mRNA
tRNAs are small RNA molecules that carry amino acids to growing polypeptide chains that are being made in a ribosome. The have anti-codons that are complimentary to the codons on the mRNA. They carry an amino acid that is specific to their anti-codon.

Codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on mRNA. Anti codon = 3 amino acid sequence found on tRNA.The codons are for the traslation of mRNa to an amino acid sequence by using ribosomes.
tRNA mediates recognition of the codon and provides the corresponding amino acid. It mainly is recognized for carrying amino acids. It then gives to it mRNA to translate the nucleotides proteins.

tRNA brings amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome.
First we convert the nucleic acid into a messenger RNA, mRNA, by the process of transcription. Then, in the ribosome, we convert this mRNA unto a polypeptide ( the amino acid sequence ) by the process of translation.
D. codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA to which the amino acid is attached. __________ On my packet it says answer C. Codon on the mRNA and the anticodon on the tRNA but it's all the same thing XD
AGT codes for the amino acid serine and CTT codes for the amino acid leucine.
---- ---- ---- ---- ---- An Amino Acid. === ===
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.
A tRNA molecule brings an amino acid from the cytoplasm to its correct location on the mRNA molecule at the ribosome where it will be added to the amino acid chain. A tRNA molecule has an anticodon that is complimentary to a specific mRNA codon for a particular amino acid.
