From the following, identify the statements that are correct regarding tRNA.

I. Hydrogen bonds between bases temporarily hold tRNA against mRNA.
II. The base sequences in the tRNA molecules are the same as the base sequences in the mRNA that is being translated.
III. The specificity of the tRNA molecule for glycine and the specificity of the enzyme that loads glycine are both necessary for correct loading.

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The codon and anti-codon sequence are complimentary and bind to each other via H-bonds which occurs between tRNA and mRNA during translation. The base sequence of tRNA and mRNA are not same rather complimentary to each other and highly specific to ensure correct sequence of amino acid in making the desired protein.
