Which of the following types of RNA molecules is involved in the regulation of gene expression by binding to specific messenger RNA molecules?

A Transfer RNA (tRNA)
B Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
C MicroRNA (miRNA) ✓
D Small nuclear RNA (snRNA)

Explanation

MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that play a crucial role in regulating gene expression by binding to specific messenger RNA molecules and preventing their translation.
