Human mitochondrial DNA encodes for _________(a) 21 tRNAs(b) 31 tRNAs(c) 22 tRNA(d) 24 tRNAs |
|
Answer» Right option is (c) 22 tRNA The best I can explain: The mitochondria possess their own genetic material and the machinery to manufacture their own RNAs and proteins. In humans, the mitochondrial DNA encodes for 2 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and also 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs) that are used in protein synthesis within the organelle. |
