What causes properties of bases?

The properties of bases are primarily caused by their ability to accept protons (H+) from acids, forming water. Bases dissociate in water to release hydroxide ions (OH-) that can react with acids. This ability to neutralize acids is what gives bases their characteristic properties of tasting bitter, feeling slippery, and turning litmus paper blue.

Why are there 64 ways to combine 4 bases of a nucleic acid into codons?

There are 4 bases in nucleic acids (A, T, C, G). Each codon consists of 3 bases, so there are 4 * 4 * 4 = 64 possible combinations (4^3) of these bases to form codons.
