Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a type of RNA that, along with proteins, makes up the ribosomes. Ribosomes are the cellular structures where protein synthesis occurs.
congrats on reading the definition of ribosomal RNA (rRNA). now let's actually learn it.
mRNA: Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries genetic information from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
tRNA: Transfer RNA (tRNA) brings amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
Ribosome: A cellular structure composed of rRNA and proteins; it is the site where protein synthesis takes place.
