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: -Types of rRNA Therefore, it may be concluded that a single rRNA gene in archaea and bacteria codes for the three rRNA types: 16S, 23S, and 5S.
Detailed explanation-3: -Prokaryotes have 3 varieties of rRNA: 5S, 16S and 23S rRNAs. The 5S and 23S rRNAs are found within the large ribosomal subunit, while the 16S rRNA is located in the small ribosomal subunit. Eukaryotes, on the other hand, have at least 4 flavors of rRNA: 5S, 5.8S, 18S and 28S rRNAs.
