adenine (A) forms a base pair with thymine (T)
guanine (G) forms a base pair with cytosine (C)
In RNA, thymine is replaced by uracil (U)
I believe that is coding for an amino acid. You decode the amino acids using charts based on mRNA or tRNA.
I believe it's the

Codon
codon
Among many things an RNA primer for DNA replication.
When a gene is transcribed there is a sequence of RNA bases that was copied from the DNA sequence. The RNA sequence can be exactly the same as the DNA or can be modified more in higher organisms by removing the introns if any. Three RNA bases is a codon. Each codon signifies an amino acid. There is an initiation codon and a terminal codon. So the amino acid sequence is determined by the sequence (multiple of 3 RNA bases) of codons between the initiation codon and termination codon.
codon
It all depends on how the sequence is used and who is using it.
It is a codon.The word was coined in 1962 by Sydney Brenner for a group of three nucleotides (or their bases) in DNA that code for one amino acid. Since then the word has also been extended to apply to messenger RNA.

RNA Polymerase.
A sequence of three nucleic acid bases on transfer RNA molecules which recognizes and binds to three corresponding bases (called a codon) of messenger RNA. During protein synthesis this interaction ensures that the amino acid encoded by the codon is added to the growing protein.

No, a sequence of three bases (called a codon) does not directly form an amino acid. However, each codon in a sequence of DNA or RNA corresponds to a specific amino acid, according to the genetic code. The sequence of codons determines the order in which amino acids are assembled during protein synthesis.
codon
DNA sequences contain the nitrogen bases adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. RNA sequences contain the nitrogen bases adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine. If the sequence contains thymine it is a DNA sequence if it contains uracil it is an RNA sequence.
The information in DNA and RNA is carried in the sequence of the nitrogen bases.
That all depends on what sequence you are useong and where.
Bases A and T link together and C and G link together. If your DNA sequence was, for example, ATCGAGT your RNA sequence would be TAGCTCA.
It all depends on how the sequence is used and who is using it.
