Answer:

Three major classes of RNA found in the cell are:

  • Messenger RNA
  • Transfer RNA
  • Ribosomal RNA

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Messenger RNA: function is to carry the genetic code from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.
  • Ribosomal RNA: is present in the cytoplasm of the cell. ribosomal RNA plays a major role in the synthesis of protein.
  • Transfer RNA: is present in cellular cytoplasm, the function of tRNA is to transfer the amino acids to the ribosome.
