Explanation / Answer

26.

Incorrect: methionine carrying tRNA which is the first tRNA land in the middle slot present in the ribosome. The middle slot in the ribosome is the P site. The fresh charged tRNA land on the A site. To form the peptide chain, methionine transfer from the first tRNA to the amino acid carrying second tRNA in the A site.

Hence, the options (B), (C), (D) and (E) are incorrect.

Correct: uncharged tRNA is one that do not contain the amino acid. At the termination step when all the amino acid transferred to form the polypeptide chain, the uncharged tRNA comes out through the P site.

Hence, the correct option is (A).

27.

Incorrect: tRNA contain only the anticodons (triplet sequence) for the codons present on the mRNA. Codons and anticodons are made of three nucleotides but not the sequence of DNA. Also these are not the identical RNA sequences as these are not present on the same type of RNA.

Hence, the options (A), (B), (C) and (E) are incorrect.

Correct: the common thing exist between the codons and anticodons is that, they are the complementary RNA sequences. For every codon present on the mRNA has complementary anticodon present on the tRNA.

Hence, the correct option is (D).
