In three dimensional view the molecule of tRNA is :

In three dimensional view the molecule of tRNA is :
A L-shaped
B S-shaped
C Y-shaped
D E-shaped

Detailed Solution

In two dimensions, tRNA is drawn as a clover leaf.
In three dimensions, X-ray studies show that it folds into a compact, inverted L-shaped structure, with the anticodon at one end and the amino acid attachment site (CCA end) at the other.
So in three dimensions tRNA is L-shaped.
