RNA function is to help make protein ,send messages,and bind amino acids together.

In general RNA in cells is used in the process of gene expression. Genes that are doing something are transcribed into messenger RNA molecules. These are then translated by ribosomes (which also contain different RNA molecules) into protein molecules. The process of translation also requires transfer RNA molecules which bring the proper amino acids to the ribosome during the translation process.

RNA (Ribo-Nucleic Acid) serves the same purpose as DNA (Dioxy-Nucleic Acid). The difference is that DNA is found in plants, animals, fungus, etc... However, RNA is found in Virus, such as Influenza. The purpose of both RNA and DNA is to provide a pattern for multiplying cells. In virus, however this means that the virus invades living cells and steals the nessicary components to multiply. RNA is essentially half of a DNA strand, and does not have the nessicary parts to multiply on its own.

mRNA : it is a mirror copy of DNA and it carries messages from the nucleus to sites of protein synthesis

tRNA : it binds to an amino acid from a site and can bind to three unpaired baised from the other site

rRNA : it forms the major component of ribosomes

Synthesizes proteins, messenger, transferring DNA--lots of types possible: mRNA, tRNA, rRNA etc...need more specifics about what exactly you're looking for to give a better answer.
