100 POINTS!! PLEASE ANSWER!!!! Codons and Amino AcidsThe translation of RNA into protein is similar to what happens in a computer code. The information encoded in the nucleic acids of an mRNA molecule is “read” in groups of three nucleotides called codons. This is similar to the way a computer interprets the zeroes and ones of binary code strings into a program you can use. A codon is a three-nucleotide mRNA sequence that codes for an amino acid. Amino acids are the subunits, or monomers, that make up polypeptides. One or more polypeptides make up a protein.Codon | A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides that code for an amino acid. For example, the codon CGA codes for arginine, abbreviated Arg, and UAC codes for tyrosine, abbreviated Tyr. If a gene is like a sentence, a codon is like:
a. a letter
b. a word
c. a book
d. a library
