There are three main types of RNA, each with distinct functions:
Messenger RNA (mRNA): Carries genetic information from DNA in the nucleus to the ribosome, where it serves as a template for protein synthesis.
Transfer RNA (tRNA): Translates the mRNA sequence into an amino acid sequence by carrying specific amino acids to the ribosome during translation.
