Best answer
Right answer is (a) True

The best explanation: Energy estimates included the stabilizing energy associated with stacking base pairs in a double-stranded region and the destabilizing influence of regions that were not paired. Pipas and McMahon (1975) developed computer programs that listed all possible helical regions in tRNA sequences.
