A _____ is a sequence of 3 nucleotides within mRNA that encodes for a specific amino acid or termination sequence.

1 answer:

Answer: Codon

Explanation: A codon is a triplet of nucleotides in an mRNA that codes for specific amino acids. There are 64 possible codons. They are called the genetic codes. Three of these codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) do not code any known amino acid and are thus called termination codons. One of the codons (AUG) signals the beginning of translation and is thus called initiation codon.
