|
|
This type of RNA is found in ribosomes, is globular in shape, and the lowercase r stands for ribosomal
|

|
This type of RNA carries amino acids to the ribosome and contains the anti-codon

Detailed explanation-1: -Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) is a type of non-coding RNA which is the primary component of ribosomes, essential to all cells. rRNA is a ribozyme which carries out protein synthesis in ribosomes.
Detailed explanation-2: -In accord with the expectations, we find that beyond the midpoint, the shape of rRNA does resemble a prolate ellipsoid.
Detailed explanation-3: -The RNA found in ribosomes, the molecules responsible for catalysing protein synthesis, is known as ribonucleic acid (rRNA).
Detailed explanation-4: -Each ribosome is composed of a small and large subunit that is joined together with ribosomal proteins. In eukaryotic cells, rRNA is synthesized in the nucleolus and is located in the cytoplasm and in prokaryotic cells, while rRNA is synthesized and located in the cytoplasm.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a type of stable RNA that is a major constituent of ribosomes. It ensures the proper alignment of the mRNA and the ribosomes during protein synthesis and catalyzes the formation of the peptide bonds between two aligned amino acids during protein synthesis.
