Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
tRNA is present in cytoplasm . Its main function is to take desired amino acids to ribosomes during protein synthesis Actually tRNA contain an anticodon (i.e.a triplet of three nitrogenous bases), this reads codon present on mRNA which comes from nucleus and on this bases . It takes up amino acids from cytoplasm
