• anticodons on the tRNA line up with complementary codons on the mRNA

• tRNA attach amino acids to the complementary mRNA sequence

• mRNA attach amino acids to the complementary tRNA sequence

What does tRNA "transfer"?

• amino acids

• nucleic acids

• nucleotides

• AUG

What do amino acids come together to join?

• a growing polypeptide chain (protein)

• a growing lipid

• a growing carbohydrate

• a growing nucleic acid
