DNA
|
|
|
mRNA
|
|
|
tRNA

rRNA

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Each group of three bases in mRNA constitutes a codon, and each codon specifies a particular amino acid (hence, it is a triplet code). The mRNA sequence is thus used as a template to assemble-in order-the chain of amino acids that form a protein.
Detailed explanation-2: -The given statement is False. Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a type of RNA molecule that is responsible for transporting individual amino acids for the translation process. It does not contain the codon. Instead, the tRNA molecule contains the anticodon that matches with the codon of the mRNA molecule.
