Answer: a. tRNA

Explanation: The transference RNA is a nucleic acid that participates of the protein synthesis. tRNA is a small RNA with folding as a trefoil. The tRNA has a site where aminoacid is loaded and a anticodon site that is complementary to the codon in the mRNA, ensuring the proper aminoacid sequence in the resulting polypeptide.
