Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis-the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule. In fact, rRNA is sometimes called a ribozyme or catalytic RNA to reflect this function.
Detailed explanation-2: -Driving along the mRNA, the ribosome reads a set of three-nucleotide sequences on the mRNA called codon that encodes a specific amino acid. The tRNA brings these amino acids, protein’s building blocks, to the ribosome.
