The genetic code in eukaryotes is comprised of 64 possible combinations of 3 nucleotides or codons. How many are amino acid coding codons and how many are stop codons? 61 and 3 30 and 30 15 and 45 10 and 50 5 and 55

The genetic code: A) Is composed of 64 codons, of which three are STOP codons B) Is composed of 64 codons that code for amino acids C) Is composed of 64 codons, each coding for a different amino acid D) Is different from one organism to another E) Consists of DNA in eukaryotes, while in viruses it consists of RNA

How many triplets make up the genetic code? A) 20, like the amino acids it encodes B) 12, due to the redundancy of amino acids C) 64 D) 36 E) A variable number depending on the species considered

Question 11In the genetic code, mRNA is decoded in blocks of three bases, known as codons. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid. Proteins are built one amino acid at a time, with order determined by the order of the codons in the mRNA. There are 64 possible codons in this genetic code, but there are only 20 amino acids. What do the extra codons allow for?

How many nucleotides are there in a codon?a) 1b) 3c) 20d) 64

n the genetic code, there are:Select one:a. The same number of codons and amino acidsb. More tRNAs than codonsc. More nucleotides than codonsd. More codons than amino acids
