Q

mRNA (function)

A

carries a copy of the Sequence of Nucleic Acid Bases from the DNA to the Ribosomes, Where the Sequences are Translated into a Series of Linked Amino Acids to form Proteins

Q

tRNA (function)

A

Series of RNA molecules which are Charged with an Amino Acid by the Appropriate tRNA synthetase Protein and which carry that Activated amino amino acid to the ribosomes. Once there the appropriate tRNA binds to the mRNA via the Anti-Codon Loop and Transfers the activated amino acid to the growing Polypeptide Chain.
