Answer:

mRNA

Step-by-step explanation:

mRNA in eukaryotes has the start codon AUG, which codes for amino acid methionine. mRNA also codes for different amino acids in proteins. mRNA is the docking site for various tRNA that uses its anticodon loop to base pair with codons in the mRNA. Upon base pairing with mRNA, the tRNA recruits different amino acid at the site of protein synthesis which is the ribosomes in the cell.
