Absolutely Yes, Life Depends Upon It. Nucleotides grouped in 3's are called ' triplet codons '. The four nucleotides, ATC&G, read as triplet codons, determine the order of amino-acids that are sequentially added to a nascent (growing) protein chain. See Proteins and Dna.

Why can 32p be used to make any nucleotide?
All nucleotides have a phosphorus atom that can be replaced with 32P
What three units are used to express amounts of pressure?
There are far more than three units used to describe pressure.Three popular ones are:pounds per square inchpascalatmosphereTorrmillibar
What are the three units that are used to measure temperature?
they are Celsius Fahrenheit Kelvin
One of two purines used as a nitrogen base in nucleotides?
adenine
What units of distance measurement are used in Ukraine?
Metric units. Certainly they can make conversions, but Ukraine is working to get into the EU. And the EU has standards. One is the metric system.
The instructions in nucleotides are used to make what?
Cells
What is the function of Nucleotide?
The nucleotides are composed of three parts: a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogenous base. The nucleotides are the storehouse of genetic information.
What does a group of three nucleotides code for?
DNA nucleotides 'code' for RNA copies of the DNA strand, but the true 'coding' of nucleotides happen in the ribosome where amino acids are matched to the RNA nucleotides. Nucleotides in DNA are only are present to store genetic data. When a particular gene needs to be used or a protein needs to be made, a RNA copy of the DNA will be made, using the slightly different RNA nucleotides (adenine, uracil, cytosine and guanine). This copy then leaves the nucleus and travels to the ribosome, where the RNA nucleotides are used to assemble amino acids into proteins. Each amino acid matches up to a three-nucleotide sequence.
What units are repeatedly joined together to form a strand of DNA?
DNA is a polymer of nucleotides. A DNA molecule consists of three parts—a nitrogen base, a five-carbon sugar called deoxyribose, and a phosphate group.There are four DNA nucleotides, each with one of the four nitrogen bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine). The first letter of each of these four bases is often used to symbolize the respective nucleotide (A for adenine nucleotide, for example)
Why can 32p be used to make any nucleotide?
All nucleotides have a phosphorus atom that can be replaced with 32P
Why are square units used when working with a three-dimensional figure?
Surface area of three dimensional figures are measured in square units whereas their volumes are measured in cubic units
What is 5 and three quarters into m?
The answer depends what units are used for 5 and three quarters!
How three eighths in measurements?
It is three units out of every eight. Its value will depend on what is being measured: area, length, mass, etc and the units being used.
What are three units of measure used to describe work?
there is only one
What is the name of the three four line rhymning units used in a sonnet?
Quatrains
What are the three basic si units of measurement?
There are not three, but seven base units in the SI. See the list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_units The first three in the list are the ones used in mechanics.
What is the name of the three four-line rhymning units used in sonnet?
