BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Each group of three consecutive nucleotides in RNA is called a codon, and each codon specifies either one amino acid or a stop to the translation process.

Detailed explanation-2: -A sequence of three consecutive nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule that codes for a specific amino acid. Certain codons signal the start or end of translation.

Detailed explanation-3: -A codon is a DNA or RNA sequence of three nucleotides (a trinucleotide) that forms a unit of genomic information encoding a particular amino acid or signaling the termination of protein synthesis (stop signals).

Detailed explanation-4: -The more bases there are per codon the more information you can code for. There are only 22 different amino acids, in consequence we need minimum 3 bases per codon.

Detailed explanation-5: -Transfer RNA (tRNA) contains about 75 nucleotides, three of which are called anticodons, and one amino acid.
