Step by step solution

01

Introduction

There are three types of RNA.

(1) Ribonucleic acid (r RNA)

(2) RNA messenger (m RNA)

(3) RNA transfer (t RNA)

02

Explanation

  • The instructions are sent from the nucleus to the cytoplasm via messenger RNA (mRNA).
  • Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA), the other two types of RNA, are important in the process of arranging amino acids to produce proteins.
