Answer:

O amino acid

Step-by-step explanation:

tRNAs bring their amino acids to the mRNA in a specific order. This order is determined by the attraction between a codon, a sequence of three nucleotides on the mRNA, and a complementary nucleotide triplet on the tRNA called an anticodon. This anticodon also specifies the particular amino acid that the tRNA carries.
