Detailed explanation-1: -Codon is a sequence of three nucleotides, which together form a unit of genetic code in a DNA or RNA molecule. Each nucleotide contains one nitrogen base. So, there are 3 nitrogen bases present in each nucleotide.
Detailed explanation-2: -A codon consists of 3 bases and there are 4 different kinds of bases in a nucleic acid altogether. There will be atotal of 43 = 64 codons. Q. A codon consists of 3 bases and there are 4 different kinds of bases in a nucleic acid altogether.
Detailed explanation-3: -A codon is a sequence of four nitrogenous bases.
Detailed explanation-4: -DNA and the corresponding messenger RNA are made up of a series of bases. In RNA, these bases are often labeled with the letters A, U, C, and G. A set of three bases makes up a codon.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are 3 STOP codons in the genetic code-UAG, UAA, and UGA. These codons signal the end of the polypeptide chain during translation. These codons are also known as nonsense codons or termination codons as they do not code for an amino acid.
