Which best describes a codon? a. a cell structure that gives the master instructions for an organism b. a segment of DNA that is the basis of heredity in organisms c. the sequence of three bases that codes for a specific amino acid d. the basic unit of structure and function of all living things

Sagot :

The answer is c - is a triplet code that codes for a specific amino acid. tRNA molecules have the anticodon embedded hence they can match up with mRNA due to the complementary nature of RNAs

The correct answer is C.

The sequence of three bases which codes for a specified amino acid.


Codon is termed as sequence of three RNA nucleotides which corresponds with specific amino acid which stops signaling during protein synthesis.


It is represented as RNA codon reason being that, when proteins are made in cell by ribosomes. mRNA directs protein synthesis and it is determined by sequence of genomic DNA.
