Question

The genetic code exists as _____________ codons, which are sets of _______________ nucleotides in which each nucleotide is one of the _____________ kinds of ribonucleotides composing R N A.

Answer 1

     RNA, 3, 4.

    The very important thing here is the knowledge of the process of how a cell makes a protein, and this is quite simple. It starts at the nucleus of a cell, with the polymerase RNA reading the DNA and then making a single RNA ribbon, the mRNA, this contains 4 kinds of ribonucleotides, adenylate, guanylate, uridylate, cytidylate. This ribbon then gets out of the nucleus carried by tRNA containing the codon that matches these for, but in cracks (3).

     Don't forget that this process is all based in amino acids, a protein is formed by these, and each crack will determine what this protein or that one will do for the cell's survival. So the conclusion to that is: all the proteins in your body are based in your own DNA, that's why you are who you are.
