RNA
Messenger RNA
Long single stranded molecule
Synthesised in the nucleus
Carries genetic codes from the DNA to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm
Different MRNA molecules have different lengths related to the gene they were synthesised
Ribosomal RNA
Is found in the cytoplasm
Large complex molecules
Ribosomes are made of rRNA and proteins
They are the sight of translation
Transfer RNA
Small single stranded molecule which folds
It has a cloverleaf shape
Hydrogen bonds between complementary pairs
Molecules of tRNA transport a specific amino acids to the ribosomes in protein synthesis
RNA is a single stranded polynucleotide
Pentode sugar ribose
Purine- adenine and guanine
Pyrimidine- cytosine and uracil
