Actually no, mutlipe codons can make amino acids. There are codons in your DNA (so therefore mRNA) that are stop and start codons. These codons tell the ribosomes in the cell making the amino acids when to start and stop making the amino acids. Majority of amino acids are made from many codons.

This triplet is called a codon.


What are the complement of the codons and are found on the opposite side of he rna?

tRNA (or transfer RNA) molecules contain an anti-codon loop that contains within it a triplet complementary nucleotide sequence to that of the codon. This triplet is called the anti-codon

Short Answer is: for every triplet codon there is a recognizable anti-triplet codon.


What is the triplet code on mrna called?

The triplet code on mRNA is known as a codon. This 3-base sequence codes for a specific amino acid to be added to the chain (i.e. protein) being created.

What is the difference between a codon from an anticodon and explain the significance of each?

A codon is the triplet sequence in messenger RNA (mRNA) that specifies an amino acid or a start or stop command. Its complementary sequence in transfer RNA (tRNA) is called the anticodon.
