The correct answer is: Only single tRNA exists for all 3 stop codons.
tRNA has anticodon loop which has anticodons complementary to the codons of mRNA. Due to very small size tRNA is also called as soluble RNA. Amino acid binds to 3' end of tRNA. Three stop codons does not have any anticodons thus no tRNA is there for stop codons.
