73. The cellular state characterized by the heavy accumulation of uncharged tRNA molecules inside the cytoplasm indicates

A. High concentration of structural proteins
B. Depletion of cellular amino acid pools
C. Rapid rate of ribosomal RNA synthesis
D. Inhibition of RNA Polymerase III activity

📝 Explanation

Uncharged tRNAs lack attached amino acids; their buildup indicates that the cell is running low on amino acids to fuel protein translation.

📖 Additional Information

  • High concentration of structural proteins
  • Depletion of cellular amino acid pools
  • Rapid rate of ribosomal RNA synthesis
  • Inhibition of RNA Polymerase III activity
