12 Because 1 nucleotide=1 Amino Acid.

How many nucleotides are necessary to code for a polypeptide that is 200 amino acids long?
In the genetic code, a sequence of three nucleotides forms a codon, which codes for one amino acid. So for each amino acid, there are three nucleotides. Therefore, 600 nucleotides are needed to make 200 amino acids.
Membrane-bound packet in cytoplasm that contains liquid?
cytoplasm
What is moved into cytoplasm?
umm... I'm not sure that anything is moved into the cytoplasm, but the cytoplasm contains the organelles of a cell
What is the region inside the cell including the nucleus?
The region between the cell membrane and the nucleus is called cytoplasm.
The part of the cell that contains the living substance of the cell excluding the nucleus is the?
the nucleus contains all the info the cell needs to perform mitosis/meiosis but the nucleus also contains the nucleolus, that is where the chromosomes are found. (we just finished the cell unit in 7th grade science)

What contains the codes for the sequence of amino acids in protein?
Generally DNA. But the DNA sequence gets transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA) which the mRNA gets translated by ribosomes into a polypeptide and later into a protein.

The region between the cell membrane and the nucleus is called cytoplasm.
Which one is used to make protein DNA or RNA?
Both are involved. DNA contains the instructions, which are transcribed onto mRNA. This mRNA travels out of the nucleus to the ribosome - where it is translated into an amino acid sequence (polypeptide/protein).
Do all animal cell contains cytoplasm?
Yes, they all contain cytoplasm.
