Q. In $tRNA$, the amino acid attachment site is

Molecular Basis of Inheritance

Solution:

$t RNA$ has $G$ at $5^{'}$ end and $CCA$ at $3^{'}$ end. $CCA$ of $3^{'}$ end is meant for attaching to a specific amino acid ( $AA$ binding site). Opposite to the $AA$ binding site is the anticodon loop which is the binding site for $mRNA$.
