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.

the function of tRNA is to carry the amino acid to the ribosome and binds new amino acid to the growing chainof amino acid...(for protein making)
the function of trna is to bring a specific amino acid to make a complete protein. The trna has an anti-codon which matches the codon on the mrna strand.

What is the function of the anticodon?
It binds to a part of the tRNA which binds to methionine.
What is the function of a release factor?
It binds to the stop codon in the A site in place of a tRNA
Transporting amino acids to ribosomes for assembly into needed proteins is the function of?
tRNA
Which nucleic acid does not carry out its function in the ribosome?
DNA does not. RNA; mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA, all do.
What is an anticodon and what is its function?
A sequence of tRNA that matches a codon of mRNA. The anticodon codes for an amino acid residue during translation.
What statement best describes the function of tRNA in translation?
tRNA carries amino acids to the ribosome.
What is the structure function and location of anticodon?
trna
What is the function of the anticodon?
It binds to a part of the tRNA which binds to methionine.
What is the function of a release factor?
It binds to the stop codon in the A site in place of a tRNA
Transporting amino acids to ribosomes for assembly into needed proteins is the function of?
tRNA
What function does tRNA have?
It's the shuttle system for amino acids to get to the mRNA-ribosome complex.
Which nucleic acid does not carry out its function in the ribosome?
DNA does not. RNA; mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA, all do.
Does transfer RNA perform its function in the nucleus or cytoplasm explain your answer?
tRNA performs its function in cytoplasm. its function if to transfer amino acid to the protein synthetic mechinery i.e. ribosome, which is present in cytoplasm.
What is an anticodon and what is its function?
A sequence of tRNA that matches a codon of mRNA. The anticodon codes for an amino acid residue during translation.
How does the anticodon function?
Anticodon on the tRNA base- pair with the codon on the mRNA and catalyses the elongation of the polypeptide chain in translation. Besides that, anticodon are specific and the specific anticodon on the tRNA decides what types of amino acid it carries on the 3' end.
How does the structure of tRNA relate to its function in translation?
The function of tRNA includes the transfer of amino acids to ribosome, matching the anticodon with an amino acid, and forming hydrogen bonds between anticodons and mRNA codons. Because the amino acid and anticodons are at the ends of the RNA it will be able to match together, its small size allows it to transfer amino acids to the ribosome, and since the anticodon is at the end of the tRNA it will be able to form hydrogen bonds with mRNA codons.
Why does tRNA have a T shape?
The shape of tRNA is specifically designed to be able to accept the amino acid according to its anticodon. If tRNA was in any other shape, aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, the enzyme that adds amino acid to tRNA, would not be able to transfer the amino acid to tRNA.
