How many nucleotides a genetic codon carries?
Three nucleotides makes up each codon. The codons consist of combination of 4 differing nucleotides A,G,T, and C.

nucleotides, which consist of a 5carbon sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base
What are the building blocks of (monomers)of DNA?
The monomers of DNA are nucleotides, which consist of the sugar deoxyribose, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.
