c
$tRNA$ (or transfer $RNA$) is a single stranded $RNA$ molecule which brings amino acid and reads the genetic code in the process of transcription. It helps decode a messenger $RNA$ $(mRNA)$ sequence into a protein. It functions at specific sites in the ribosome during translation, which is a process that synthesizes a protein from a $mRNA$ molecule.
