Which one of the following pairs is correctly matched
A
Ribosomal RNA-Carries amino acids to the site of protein synthesis
B
Transcription-Process by which protein is synthesized
C
Translation-Process by which m-RNA carries the information from the nucleus to ribosomes
D
Anticodon-Site of a t-RNA molecule hydrogen bond that binds to the m-RNA molecule
