The correct response is:

tRNA carries amino acids to the ribosome and helps form proteins.

tRNA (transfer RNA) is essential in the translation process as it transports specific amino acids to the ribosome, where they are added to the growing polypeptide chain according to the sequence of codons in the mRNA.
