tRNA (transfer RNA) plays a crucial role in protein synthesis by carrying amino acids to the ribosome, where they are assembled into proteins according to the sequence of the mRNA (messenger RNA). Therefore, among the options provided, the correct response would be:
**collects amino acids for translation**.
tRNA does not combine with proteins to form ribosomes, nor does it carry genetic information; instead, it helps in decoding the genetic information during translation by bringing the appropriate amino acids.
