tRNA molecules exist within the cell cytoplasm. They are strands of RNA, where one end is bound to a specific free amino acid, and the other end possesses an "anticodon" consisting of 3 bases complimentary to a set of 3 bases on the mRNA strand.

During translation, an mRNA molecule is "read" by a ribosome in triplicate. That is, every three bases on the mRNA molecule effectively "tell" the ribosome to bind a specific tRNA molecule to this 3-base site. With the tRNA molecule comes the associated amino acid which is attached to it, and so, in a very simplified explanation, tRNA effectively carries amino acids to the mRNA.

Bonds will then form between these amino acids, and dissociate from the ribosome, so that the end product is a long polypeptide chain.

In the cytoplasm are tRNA molecules. These are strands of RNA. One end binds to a specific free amino acid, and the other end possesses an anticodon, which is able to bind with a specific codon on the mRNA molecule

Peace.
Transfer RNA (tRNA) carries amino acids to messenger RNA (mRNA) in order to build the polypeptides.

Does RNA move out of the nucleus?

Yes, RNA moves out of the nucleus to carry genetic information to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm for protein synthesis.


How does mRNA enter the nucleus?

mRNA does not enter the nucleus. It is transcribed from DNA inside the nucleus and then exits the nucleus to carry genetic information to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm for protein synthesis.


What is the relationship between the cytoplasm and the nucleus in a cell?

The cytoplasm and nucleus are two essential components of a cell. The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing genetic material and directing cell activities. The cytoplasm surrounds the nucleus and contains various organelles that carry out specific functions. The nucleus communicates with the cytoplasm through pores in the nuclear membrane, allowing for the exchange of materials and information between the two regions. Overall, the cytoplasm and nucleus work together to maintain the cell's functions and processes.

All the parts of the cell outside of the nucleus are found in the cytoplasm. The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance that fills the cell and provides a medium for the organelles to carry out their functions.

How does mRNA get out of the nucleus to carry genetic information for protein synthesis in the cytoplasm?

mRNA is transported out of the nucleus through nuclear pores in a process called nuclear export. This allows the mRNA to travel to the cytoplasm where it can be used as a template for protein synthesis.


Does a cell have a brain?

Yes and no. Cells have something which is called a nucleus. The nucleus is kind of like the brain. It tells the cell what to do and when to divide or split. The nucleus is usually in the middle of a cell. It is surrounded by the nuclear membrane. Around the nuclear membrane is cytoplasm. Cytoplasm has smaller microbes inside which carry out the duties the nucleus(brain) has given them. The protecting the cytoplasm is the cell membrane which is the outer shell of the cell or the skin.


What organelle come from nucleus to make proteins?

Ribosomes, which are the organelles responsible for synthesizing proteins, can be found either freely floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. They are formed in the nucleolus inside the nucleus and then migrate to the cytoplasm to carry out protein synthesis.


Where are rebosomes made?

Ribosomes are made in the nucleolus, which is located within the nucleus of a cell. They are then exported to the cytoplasm where they carry out protein synthesis.

Three basic parts of all cells?

Three basic parts are nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane. Nucleus contain the genetic information of a species (DNA). Cytoplasm has all the cell organelles and molecules. Plasma membrane make the boundary of a cell, that conducts ions and participate in cell signalling.


What are the four main cell components?

The four main cell components are the cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, and organelles. The cell membrane acts as a barrier, the nucleus houses genetic material, the cytoplasm contains various organelles, and organelles carry out specific functions within the cell.
