The genetic code of all living organisms is held in DNA molecules. DNA is a polymer (long molecule made of smaller subunits) which forms double-helical (twisted ladder shape) dimers (a dimer is two molecules in close association with each other). The genetic information is encoded as three unit sequences of four different letters (A, G, C and T). Each three unit sequence (codon) provides the code for one amino acid of a protein.
Look up DNA online (wikipedia's a good place to start) for more info.

When looking at a table depicting the genetic code the base sequences signify?
When looking at a table depicting the genetic code, the base sequences signify the specific arrangement of nucleotides that code for amino acids. Each three-letter combination, or codon, represents an amino acid or a start/stop signal. These sequences are the instructions for protein synthesis in living organisms.
Manipulating the arrangement of DNA that makes up a gene is called what?
Genetic engineering
The genetic code for protein synthesis is found within what?
The genetic code for protein synthesis is formed from Dna.
Is mRNA used to carry the genetic code from DNA to ribosomes?
mRNA carries the genetic code to a ribosome.
What is the master copy of an organisms genetic code?
The master copy of an organism's genetic code is the DNA.

Is DNA genetic code or genetic blueprint?
DNA is the genetic code
What is the genetic code code for?
instruction stored in the gene in the form genetic code.
Where is the Genetic code is caried?
DNA carries the genetic code.
What is the genectic code?
genetic code is genetic information only.
Who was the inventor of the genetic code?
The genetic code was not invented, it was discovered!
What is secondary genetic code?
The secondary genetic code is the folding of protein.
What are the Components of genetic code?
The genetic code is carried by the macromolecule DNA. In particular, the sequence of nitrogen bases on the DNA determines the genetic code.
What component contains the genetic code?
The genetic code is carried in the DNA on the chromosomes.
Do all organisms share the same genetic code?
yes all living things are based on a genetic code.
Is the genetic code is arbitrary?
why genetic code is arbitraryif yesthen prov ur anser
What is manipulating the arrangement of DNA that makes up the gene called?
