3
Q
Step 3
A
At the 3’ ed of the RNA there is the nucleotide sequence CCA to which the amino acid attaches to
4
Q
Step 4
A
The different chemical properties and the 3D structure of each tRNA aloows the tRNA activating enzymes to recognise their specific tRNA
5
Q
Step 5
A
Each tRNA enzyme will binds a specific amino acid to the RNA molecule
6
Q
Step 6
A

7
Q
Step 7
A
Energy from ATP is needed during the process
