Answer:

The correct answer is a tRNA brings over the correct amino acid by using the anticodon to match to mRNA during translation

Step-by-step explanation:

tRNA or Transfer RNA play an important role during the translation process.tRNA contain anticodon that interracts with the codon of mRNA molecule with the help of Ribosome to bring the amino acid to its own acceptor arm. The amino that is brought to acceptor arm of tRNA is specific for the codon present in mRNA.

tRNA then moves to the P site and a new tRNA bind to the A site of ribosome and brings a new amino acid that form peptide bond with previously generated amino acid. Then process continue untill the tRNA recognizes a termination or nonsense codon
