Explanation:

A codon specify a particular amino acid. It is been read in three base pair or nucleotide. Cells are able to decode mRNA by reading this codon that specify a particular amino acids. We have the start codon (AUG specifying methionine) and stop codon which are three UAA,UGA,UAG

The start codon specify when to start translation and the stop codon specific when translation should stop.

Since a codon contains is a group of 3 nucleotide Bases then 100 amino acid will contain 300 nucleotide bases.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The formed elements of the blood include red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). Of these, leukocytes are primarily involved in the immune response. All formed elements originate in the bone marrow as stem cells (HSCs) that differentiate through hematopoiesis.
