tRNA carry amino acids to the ribosome during translation. Enzymes in the cell very specifically attach the correct amino acid to the correct tRNA molecule.
The anticodon of the tRNA interacts very specifically with the codons in the messenger RNA.
These two things insure that the protein molecule that is made is what it is supposed to be.

Transfer RNA (tRNA) is a hunter seeker molecule that travels around the cell picking up amino acids. Each tRNA molecule has a specific set of 3 base pairs (A-T or C-G) in the form of an anti codon, which is specific to an amino acid.
Once the tRNA molecule has found and paired with its amino acid it takes it to the a ribosomes the amino acid then is then used attached to a growing chain which will eventually form another protein.
Short and sweet i hope it helps

mRNA - messenger RNA- Acts as a messenger tRNA - Transfer RNA rRNA - Ribosomal RNA Ribosomal molecules of mRNA determine the order of tRNA molecules that are bound to triplets of amino acids (codons). The order of tRNA molecules ultimately determines the amino acid sequence of a protein because molecules of tRNA catalyze the formation of peptide bonds between the amino acids, linking them together to form proteins. The newly formed proteins detach themselves from the ribosome site and migrate to other parts of the cell for use.

1. Transfers amino acids to a polypeptide chain being made during translation.
2. Uses its anticodon region to recognize codons in mRNA and bind to amino acids.
