In mitosis, the chromosomes duplicate once and divide once. The chromosomes line up end to end, so that when they are pulled apart each cell receives a full set of genetic material.
In meiosis, the chromosomes duplicate once but divide twice. This reduces the amount of genetic material in each cell by half. When the cells divide the first time, chromosomes line up in pairs instead of end to end. This ensures that each cell receives half the genetic material.

What are the 3 bases of finding the amino acid of a codon
lys-0071 [83]

The three nucleotides are the bases used to encode an amino acid of codon.

<u>EXPLANATION: </u>

Genetic code explains the bases and flow in DNA followed by the flow of amino acids present in the proteins.Proteins are usually made of 20 amino acids that has been encoded by four bases. Now, at least three bases are required to encode 20 amino acids.

Three adjacent nucleotides forms a unit called codon. Also, experiments have been done to show that the single amino acid encoded by a group of three bases. This code doesn't overlap with others and the order of flow is read sequentially without any punctuation.
