Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is not one of the three types of RNA?
A
mRNA (messenger)
B
rRNA (ribosomal)
C
tRNA (transfer)
D
nRNA (nitrogen)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Three main types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis. They are messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), and ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

Detailed explanation-2: -mRNAs have three parts: Nucleotides at the 5′ end provide binding sites for proteins that initiate polypeptide synthesis; nucleotides in the middle specify the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide; and nucleotides at the 3′ end regulate the stability of the mRNA (Fig. 1.1).

Detailed explanation-3: -Which of the following is not a type of RNA? a codon.

Detailed explanation-4: -The mRNA bases are grouped into sets of three, called codons. Each codon has a complementary set of bases, called an anticodon.
