How many codons specify the twenty types of amino acids?
There are 61 codons that specify the twenty types of amino acids, since multiple codons can code for the same amino acid due to the redundancy of the genetic code.
How many protein-coding codons are there?
61 codons specify the amino acids used in proteins and 3 codons (stop codons) signal termination of growth of the polypeptide chain...so 64 total
What is the number of codons that actually specify amino acids is?
61. there are 64 total codon arrangements. However three of those (UAA, UAG, UGA) are STOP codons and in turn do not call for the tRNA to bind a protein. Rather, these 3 codons call for termination of translation. The START condon in RNA is UAG, with calls for the amino acid (Met'). It is important to remember that even though there are 61 codons that call for amino acids, only 20 amino acids are available. This means that more than one codon can call for the same amino acid which brings about the REDUNDANT characteristic of codons. However they are NOT AMBIGUOUS, meaning that a codon cannot call for several different amino acids. Serveral codons can call for the same amino acid, but each codon can only call for ONE specific amino acid.
What 3 codons do not carry amino acids?
There are three codons that do not code for any amino acids: the stop codons. These are TAG, TAA, and TGA (in DNA, not RNA).
How are multiple codons able to code for the same amino acids in the process of protein synthesis?
During protein synthesis, multiple codons can code for the same amino acid because of redundancy in the genetic code. This means that different combinations of three nucleotides (codons) can still specify the same amino acid. This redundancy allows for flexibility and accuracy in protein synthesis.

How many codons are needed too specify three amino acids?
3
How manny codons are needed to specify three amino acids?
three. (= 9 nucleotides)
How many codons are needed to specify three amino acids 6 or 9?
The answer is nine because one codon has 3 letters.Improved AnswerThe above answer is completely incorrect. The question is how many codons are necessary to specify three amino acids, not bases (letters). As my original answer (which was removed by the previouis contributor) pointed out, each amino acid requires one codon to specify it, so the basic answer is, three codons are necessary to specify any three amino acids. However, if the questioner had in mind how many codons are necessary to specify a polypeptide consisting of three amino acids, the answer is five, because, in addition to the three codons necessary for the amino acids, a start codon of AUG (on the mRNA transcript), and one stop codon (UAG, UGA,or UAA on the mRNA transcipt) are also needed. So, in this sense, five codons are needed to specify a polypeptide of 3 amino acids.Improved Answer: The answer is 9. ^ fail XD

How many codons are neede to specify two amino acids?
In order to create two amino acids, you would need two codons, which is 6 bases (Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, or Cytosine) because a codon is a group of three bases.
A codon is a triplet base sequence?
mRNA
What 3 codons do not carry amino acids?
There are three codons that do not code for any amino acids: the stop codons. These are TAG, TAA, and TGA (in DNA, not RNA).
How many codons are needed to specify 2 amino acids?
each codon have 3 nitrogenous bases . 3 nitrogenous bases = 1 amino acid or say 1 codon =1 amino acid ,so 2 codon = 2 amino acid
The codes for amino acids are called?
codons
What translates the mRna codons to amino acids?
The process of translating mRNA codons into amino acids is carried out by ribosomes in the cell. Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring specific amino acids to the ribosome based on the codons in the mRNA. The ribosome then catalyzes the formation of peptide bonds between the amino acids, forming a polypeptide chain.
