No, a codon is not a sequence of four nitrogenous bases; it is a sequence of three nitrogenous bases. Codons are found in messenger RNA (mRNA) and specify particular amino acids during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to one of the 20 amino acids or signals a stop in the translation process.
What else can I help you with?
What nitrogenous base is found in RNA?
The four nitrogen bases found in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.
What are the 3 parts of a nucleotide that would be found in RNA?
ribose sugar, phosphate group, nitrogen base (guanine, cytosine, adenine, uracil)
Each of the four nucleotides consist of a what a what and a what?
A sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogenous base. In DNA, the sugar is deoxyribose; in RNA it is ribose. In each nucleic acid, there are four different bases. In DNA these are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. In RNA they are the same except that there is no thymine, but uracil instead.
What is the base uracil?
The base uracil is a nitrogenous base in RNA used for protein synthesis. It replaces Thymine from DNA.
What part of nucleotide contains the genetic code?
strand of DNA
Is Guanine a nitrogenous base?
Yes, Guanine is one of the four nitrogenous bases in DNA. It is also one of the four bases in RNA, along with Adinine, cytocine and Uracil.
What is the only difference between the four nucleotides?
All of the four nucleotides have a nitrogenous base. Adenine: has a double ring, nitrogenous base and found in DNA and RNA Thymine:single ring with nitrogenous base. ONLY FOUND IN RNA. not DNA. that is a difference from the rest of the three nucleotides. Cytosine: single ring with nitrogenous base, found in both DNA and RNA Guanine: double ring with nitrogenous base, found in DNA and RNA. also i guess you can say there is another difference with the double and single rings.
Three parts of dna nucleotide?
The three parts of a DNA nucleotide are a sugar molecule (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, guanine, or cytosine). These components together make up the building blocks of DNA, with the sequence of nitrogenous bases providing the genetic information.
What are the three patrs of a nucleotide?
Nucleotides are made up of three components- a deoxyribose, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate, composed of a phosphorous atom and four oxygens. Deoxyribose is a sugar derivative while the nitrogenous base could be one of four options- adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine.
What nitrogenous base is found in DNA but not in RNA is called what?
The nitrogenous base found in DNA but not RNA is called thymine. RNA contains the base uracil which during transcription(when genetic information is copied from DNA to RNA) pairs with the base adenine in DNA. So, DNA has four nitrogenous bases: (A) adenine, (C) cytosine, G (guanine), and T (thymine). And RNA has four nitrogenous bases: (A) adenine, (C) cytosine, G (guanine) and U (uracil)
What nitrogenous base is found in RNA?
The four nitrogen bases found in RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.
What in DNA only the what varies from one nucleotide to another?
Base
What are the 3 parts of a nucleotide that would be found in RNA?
ribose sugar, phosphate group, nitrogen base (guanine, cytosine, adenine, uracil)
What is the building block of DNA is made of a nitrogenous base?
There are four nitrogenous bases in DNA: Adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine. RNA has the same bases with the exception of thymine, which is replaced with uracil.

The base uracil is a nitrogenous base in RNA used for protein synthesis. It replaces Thymine from DNA.
