  2. B
    siRNA

  4. D
    tRNA

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Protein synthesis (translation) requires:
mRNA: Provides the genetic template.

tRNA: Brings amino acids to the ribosome.

rRNA: Forms the structural and catalytic part of the ribosome.
siRNA (small interfering RNA) is involved in RNA interference (gene silencing), not the direct synthesis of proteins.
