The answer to this question is 64 CODONS.
Codons are the "words" consisting of the "letter" bases, which are a, u, g, and c.
EXAMPLE:
AUG (Methionine)
and CAG (Glutamine)
AUG and CAG are just two of the 64 possible codons.
Since there are four bases (A,C,G,T), there are 64 possible codons (4^3)
In DNA and RNA, there are four nucleotides, with three nucleotides making up each codon, so the maximum number of codons is 43, or 64.
The answer is: 4^3=64
64
64
64 codons
42 = 16 possible codons.
There are 2 stop codons and 2 start codons
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
A codon consists of a series 3 nucleotides. There are 4 possible nucleotides. These 4 nucleotides could appear in any combination with any number of repeats. That being the case, to find the possible number of mRNA codons requires simple math:4 * 4 * 4 = 64So there are 64 possible codons.
Every codon is three nucleotide pairs, so you would have 25 codons.
42 = 16 possible codons.
There are four codons in AAA UGC UCG UAA. A codon is a sequence made of three nitrogenous bases. Codons have particular features, making it possible for them to be start codons, stop codons, introns, or exons.
proline!
There are 2 stop codons and 2 start codons
Because of four different bases, there are 64 possible three-base codons (4x4x4=64). the genetic wheel shows all 64 possible codons of the genetic code.
A-C-T-G are the possible nucleotides that comprise 3 positions for a codon. 4 possible nucleotides in 3 positions 4*4*4 = 64. Some of the codons are redundant for the amino acid they produces -- so there are not 64 amino acids.

Three.
