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.
mRNA triplets are three-nucleotide sequences in mRNA that code for specific amino acids during protein synthesis. These triplets, called codons, are recognized by tRNA molecules carrying the corresponding amino acids, allowing for accurate translation of the genetic code into proteins.
A triplet of bases on tRNA is called an anticodon. The anticodon pairs with a complementary triplet of bases called a codon on mRNA during protein synthesis. This pairing ensures that the correct amino acid is added to the growing polypeptide chain.

The DNA triplet "GAG" encodes for Glutamic Acid.
I don't understand your question. mRNA does not have triplets. Did you mean codon? Triplet refers to DNA, codon to mRNA.

The complement of the mRNA triplet code is found in the tRNA anticodon, which binds to the mRNA during translation. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and has an anticodon that is complementary to the corresponding mRNA codon. For example, if the mRNA codon is AUG, the complementary tRNA anticodon would be UAC, allowing for the correct amino acid to be brought into the growing polypeptide chain. This complementary base pairing is crucial for ensuring accurate translation of the genetic code into proteins.
If you mean messenger RNA (mRNA), then yes, a triplet of mRNA nucleotides is known as a mRNA codon. However, if you mean transfer RNA (tRNA), then the answer is no. A triplet of tRNA nucleotides is known as an anticodon.
DNA
codon
A codon is found on a molecule called messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Each codon on the mRNA corresponds to a specific amino acid in the protein sequence.

The DNA triplet "GAG" encodes for Glutamic Acid.
The triplet on tRNA is called an "anticodon." This sequence of three nucleotides on the tRNA molecule is complementary to the corresponding codon on mRNA, allowing for the correct amino acid to be added during protein synthesis. Each tRNA carries a specific amino acid that corresponds to its anticodon, ensuring accurate translation of the genetic code.
The base sequence of mRnas is 'determined by the base sequence of nucleotides in Dna.' The base sequence is transformed into information via the triplet codons of The Genetic Code.
