### Step-by-Step Text Solution: 1. **Understanding the Role of tRNA**: Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a type of RNA molecule that plays a crucial role in the process of translation, which is the synthesis of proteins from amino acids. 2. **Location of tRNA**: tRNA is indeed found in the cytoplasm of the cell. This is where the ribosomes are located, and where protein synthesis occurs. 3. **Function of tRNA**: The primary function of tRNA is to transport activated amino acids to the ribosome. Each tRNA molecule is specific to one amino acid and has an anticodon that pairs with the corresponding codon on the mRNA strand. ...
