Amino acids are organic molecules which proteins are build from. There are twenty.

However there is two amino acids which are acidic: Aspartic acid and glutamic acid.

If there are three amino acids how many bases would there be on the M RNA to make these three?

Each amino acid is encoded by a set of three nucleotide bases in mRNA, known as a codon. Therefore, to encode three amino acids, there would need to be a total of nine nucleotide bases in the mRNA (3 amino acids x 3 bases per amino acid = 9 bases).


How many amino acid sequences can be made from four amino acids?

There are 20 common amino acids (pre-modification). In a set of any four, each one could be one of 20, meaning there are 204 possible combinations: 160,000. If the question was meant to be "how many amino acids can be made from 4 triplet codons then the answer would still be exactly the same. Even though there are 4 bases, meaning there are 64 different codes possible, there are still only 20 amino acids available. If the question was meant to be "how many amino acids can be made from 4 bases" you can only make one (which could be any of 20 different residues), as you need three bases to code one amino acid. See the related question below for a listing of the types of amino acids.


How many nucleotide bases does it take to specify one amino acid?

i think nine bases are needed for three amino acids because i think it takes three bases to make one amino acid


What is the minimum number of different amino acid needed to synthesized most proteins?

20 different amino acids are needed to synthesize most proteins. These amino acids can be combined in different sequences to create an almost infinite variety of protein structures and functions. Each amino acid has its own unique side chain that contributes to the overall properties of the protein.


How many codons are needed to specify 2 amino acids?

each codon have 3 nitrogenous bases . 3 nitrogenous bases = 1 amino acid or say 1 codon =1 amino acid ,so 2 codon = 2 amino acid

How many bases are needed to specify 3 amino acids?

nine. one amino acid is composed of three bases.


How many bases are needed to make 3 amino acids?

To make 3 amino acids, you would need at least 9 bases. This is because each amino acid is encoded by a sequence of 3 bases called a codon. So, 3 amino acids would require 3 codons, which would be 9 bases in total.


When the four DNA bases are combined in triplets different what of the protein are called for?

When the four DNA bases are combined in triplets, different amino acids are called for. Each triplet of bases, called a codon, corresponds to a specific amino acid, which is part of the protein synthesis process.


How many amino acids are produced by the segment of DNA that has 21 bases?

A segment of DNA with 21 bases would encode for a polypeptide with 7 amino acids. This is because each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of three bases, called a codon. Therefore, 21 bases would be translated into 7 codons, each specifying an amino acid.


Proteins are made up of monomers called?

Proteins are made up of monomers called amino acids.


What is the monomer of a protein polymer?

The monomers of proteins are known as amino acids....A further explanation:Do not confuse amino acids with nucleic acids. Nucleic acids are DNA and RNA and are another one of the BIG 4 macromolecules that are needed to survive.The 4 are:Carbohydrates (monomer: monosaccaride)Proteins (monomer: amino acids)Lipids (monomer: fatty acids)Nucleic Acids (monomer: nucleotides)


Is alanine strong acid?

No, alanine is not a strong acid. It is a nonpolar, aliphatic amino acid that is not typically classified as an acid in the context of strong acids and bases.

Are amino acids true acids?

Nope. There are however two acidic amino acids: Aspartic acid and glutamic acid.


How many bases make up the code for one amino acid?

There are 3 nitrogen bases equalling one amino acid and they are called codons. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and in turn protein in science is one of the building blocks of life. The protein molecule has the chromosome strands. On each strand of the chromosome there are shapes in groups of 3 which is the RNA or the Ribonucleic Acid. Where the chromosomes are located, the strands have messengers that travel outside to the ribosomes to be decoded or decyphered. Once the RNA has been decoded by the ribosomes the amino acid is formed. The chronological order of the amino acid being decyphered determines the type of protein. Protein is essential for human growth as it helps with the repair of our muscles amoungst many of it's uses.
