How many nucleotides a genetic codon carries?
Three nucleotides makes up each codon. The codons consist of combination of 4 differing nucleotides A,G,T, and C.
Is it true that a codon consists of four nucleotides?
Nope, a codon is 3 bases
How do nucleotides translate into amino acids?
A codon of nucleotides codes for an amino acid. The combination of nucleotides in a codon determines the amino acid the codon makes.
How many nucleotides are in a codon?
A three-nucleotide sequence makes up a codon.
What is a group of three nucleotides called?
This arrangement is called a codon.In DNA and RNA a group of three nucleotides in a row is called a codon. In tRNA a group of three nucleotides is called an anticodon.
Complementary nucleotides to a codon?
Anticodon
What is a group of nucleotides called?
codon
Three nucleotides that together specify one aminoacid?
Codon
When the ribosome reads mRNA 3 bases at a time the bases are called a what?
a set of three nucleotides is called codons. A set of 3 nucleotides in a tRNA that attaches to the complimentary codon is called the anti-codon
How many nucleotides are needed to specify one codon?
three.
What is the base sequence for the mRNA start codon?
3 nucleotides.
What is the difference between a coden and an anti coden?
a codon is the sequence of three nucleotides of mRNA, the anti codon is the amino acid of tRNA that is matched to the codon.
