They are stop codons and do not code for any amino acids.
There are 64 codons (3-base code) that represent 20 amino acids and 3 stop signals. Click on the related link to see a table of DNA codons and the amino acids for which they code.
No. Amino acids are not always represented by only one codon. Several may code for one amino acid.
Amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism are called essential amino acids. These amino acids must be obtained through diet.

No, they code for amino acids (in sequence).
From a nucleic acid code to an amino acid code
Condons are in DNA and RNA. Condons are a three-nucleotide sequence that encodes an amino acid or signifies a start signal or stop signal.
Amino acids are made by reading the code in DNA. They are combined with other amino acids to form a protein.

An mRNA transcript carries the genetic code to the ribosome. tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome for translation. The amino acids polymerize into functional proteins.
