Multiple Choice

Explain the role of tRNA and amino acids during translation.

1
tRNA synthesizes proteins directly in the nucleus.
2
tRNA breaks down mRNA into smaller fragments for recycling.
3
Amino acids are produced in the ribosome during translation.
4
tRNA transports amino acids to the ribosome, matching them to the mRNA codons during protein synthesis.
