Correct answer - C I abs III only.

Why? - DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. Transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) is a type of RNA molecule that helps decode a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence into a protein. ... When a tRNA recognizes and binds to its corresponding codon in the ribosome, the tRNA transfers the appropriate amino acid to the end of the growing amino acid chain.
