Question

What is the adapter molecule that interacts specifically with both nucleic acids and amino acids?
A)rRNA
B)tRNA
C)mRNA
D)ssRNA

Accepted Answer

tRNA (transfer RNA) is the adapter molecule that interacts specifically with both nucleic acids and amino acids. It carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis, where its anticodon sequence base pairs with a complementary codon sequence on mRNA.
