Which of the Following Statements is Correct About RNA Involvement

Question

Which of the following statements is correct about RNA involvement in translation?
A) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are responsible for attaching amino acids to the appropriate tRNAs.
B) The nucleolus is responsible for the synthesis of tRNAs catalyzed by RNA Pol II.
C) Eukaryotes, because of the complexity of their genome, are able to maintain multiple copies of rRNA genes. In contrast, the highly simplified genome of E. coli maintains a single copy.
D) The adapter molecule of protein synthesis, the rRNA, recognizes the anticodons of the mRNA molecule to direct protein synthesis.
E) None of these is correct.

Accepted Answer

Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are responsible for attaching amino acids to the appropriate tRNAs, which then carry the amino acids to the ribosome for incorporation into the growing polypeptide chain during translation.
