What are three nucleotides that together specify one amino acid?
TRIPLET CODE
Is a triplet of RNA nucleotides known as a codon?
If you mean messenger RNA (mRNA), then yes, a triplet of mRNA nucleotides is known as a mRNA codon. However, if you mean transfer RNA (tRNA), then the answer is no. A triplet of tRNA nucleotides is known as an anticodon.
What is a triplet of nucleotides that is the code for one amino acid?
I don't understand your question. mRNA does not have triplets. Did you mean codon? Triplet refers to DNA, codon to mRNA.
Nucleotides are used to make up units of three?
Absolutely Yes, Life Depends Upon It. Nucleotides grouped in 3's are called ' triplet codons '. The four nucleotides, ATC&G, read as triplet codons, determine the order of amino-acids that are sequentially added to a nascent (growing) protein chain. See Proteins and Dna.
How do nucleotides provide nucleic acid's with specific codes?
Nucleotides are merely the building blocks of nucleic acids like DNA and RNA. The specific order of these nucleotides are read in triplet form (AAC, ATA, etc.) as codons (which code for amino acids), and the combinations of these codons make up genes (which code for proteins).

What is triplet of nucleotides?
Adenine, Uracil & Guanine
Does a codon consist of four nucleotides?
No, a codon is a triplet of mRNA bases that specifies a particular amino acid.
What is the smallest number of nucleotides that must be added or subtracted to change the triplet grouping of the genetic message?
1
How many counts for a triplet in piano music?
one
What is the smallest number of nucleotides that must be added or subtracted to cause a frame- shift in the triplet grouping of the genetic message?
1
How many sets of parallel lines in a triangular prism?
Three pairs and one triplet. The triplet can be considered three pairs.
Define triplet code?
Triplet code refers to the sequence of three nucleotides (codons) in DNA or RNA that specify a particular amino acid during protein synthesis. Each triplet in the sequence corresponds to a specific amino acid, allowing the translation of genetic information into proteins.
Why is the DNA code referred to as a triplet code?
Because for the purpose of translation into aminoacids, each codon is three nucleotides long. In other words peptides which are the building blocks of proteins get made by translating three nucleotides at a time.
How many nucleotides are necessary to code for a polypeptide that is 200 amino acids long?
A minimum of 600 nucleotides is necessary to code for a polypeptide that is 200 amino acids long because each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of three nucleotides in mRNA. This is due to the genetic code being triplet, where every three nucleotides represent one amino acid.
How many nucleotides are there in one codone?
three
